HANDMADE TEXTILES & LIMITED PRODUCTION we work with raw, handwoven silks and hard-to-find yarns, all in limited supply— enough for just a few pieces (or less) per colorway. Once the fabric or yarn is used up, its exact shade, weave, or texture won’t normally be found again, making each garment a special part of our evolving creative / design process. No two are exactly alike.
A NOTE ON FIT / SIZING soft silhouettes, adjustable closures, adaptable proportions, and sculptural shapes mean most styles have been designed to adapt to many different body shapes and sizes. If you’re between sizes or unsure, we’ll gladly help you find the right fit. Contact us via IG @thenongrak or via our contact page above.

For Care / Cleaning
* Infrequent cleaning recommended. The wrinkle pattern / crinkled texture will change and morph with wear which is part of the design and we recommend always storing in the drawstring bag for best results.
Gently hand-wash with cold water and mild soap (such as gentle shampoo). Do not soak. Roll in towel to soak up excess water. Hang to dry until 80% dried, then gently twist and crumple-up into storage bag to complete drying process. Once completely dried (ideally overnight), remove from bag and shake well to help 'pleats' bloom and relax, at which time the piece can be worn as-is or it can be partially steamed to volume desired. If you desire less crumpled texture, hang outside of the storage bag and pleats will settle somewhat over time.
Please reach out anytime with questions or assistance in caring for these garments.
