Solanthera Dress

Solanthera Dress
 
Solantera evokes the warmth of the sun (sol) and the hidden roots of the Solanaceae plant family. It suggests a solar wanderer, a spirit who blooms from the inside out.
 
Sizing and Description
 
This one-of-a-kind dress is asymmetrically draped and flows from 85cm to 137cm in length. Its chest stretches to 76cm, with a waist that stretches comfortably to 80cm. From shoulder to waist measures 42cm. Made using botanically-dyed fabrics from cotton and hemp, with layered textures, its silhouette echoes the movement of leaves in the breeze — ethereal, slightly wild, and always shifting. It hugs and releases in all the right places, wrapping the body in light. The top of the dress is embellished with beautiful bioleather flowers, made from magical marigolds, madder root, crushed selenite crystal and seaweed.
 
Plant Spirit Alchemy  🌸🌙🌀
 
Infused with foraged hawthorn, nettles, ivy, tumeric, marigolds, madder and solar-dyed elements, this piece carries the energetic properties of heart-opening (hawthorn), courage (nettles), and grounded protection (ivy). It encourages growth, bold softness, and standing tall in one’s own light.
 
Nettle & Ivy: Healing, deep-rooted protection
Turmeric holds significant spiritual meaning in various cultures, symbolizing purity, abundance, and protection. It's used in rituals, ceremonies, and as a good-luck charm to attract positive energy and ward off negativity. 
Marigold: Joy, bright energy, inner child
Hawthorn: Heart opening, protection
Madder Root: Historically and spiritually, symbolizes steadfastness, protection, and the enduring nature of life. It's associated with Mars, representing strength and courage.
 
 🌼 One-of-a-Kind & Made to Order
 
This piece is one-of-a-kind and cannot be exactly replicated due to the nature of the natural dyes, foraged botanicals, and salvaged materials used. However, it can be reimagined and made to order in your size, with unique textures and tones — embracing the spirit of seasonal variation and wildcrafted magic.
