This silk twill square draws its inspiration from the rich and ornamental world of Indian motifs.
The composition features stylized floral elements, lotus, foliage, rosette flowers, which unfold in rhythmic repetition, creating a decorative effect.
This pattern pays homage to the techniques of block printing, which is an ancestral technique that appeared in the 14th century in northern India.
It consists of printing patterns using finely engraved wooden blocks, applying them manually to the fabric.
Each block corresponds to a color, which makes necessary to use several matrices to compose a pattern with several colors.
This square takes up the design of a model from the Malfroy archives, whose design has been recolored for this new collection to bring it up to date.
For several seasons, Maison Malfroy has chosen to highlight its heritage and history by revaluing its archives and historical designs.
Our style office has carried out work selecting and reinterpreting these designs to give them a touch of modernity.
It is through digitization, the creation of new colors and the subtle addition of graphic elements that these designs come back to life.
The theme Block Print: An Ancestral Tradition
Originating in Northern India, the block printing technique was developed at the dawn of the 14th century.
This ancestral tradition, perpetrated by artisans in India, consists of printing patterns in a carved wooden block, on cotton, linen and silk by exerting pressure with the hand on the block.
It is only natural that this season we wanted to pay tribute to these timeless patterns by drawing on the archives of Maison Malfroy.
