Five ways to Incorporate Ikat Print in your Wardrobe

Ikat is a dyeing technique used to pattern textiles that employs a resist dyeing process similar to tie- die. 
In order to avoid clashing, stay away from other prints and patterns when wearing ikat. Opt for solid colors that coordinate with the ikat print, and keep jewelry simple and chic.

Colors are usually vibrant and bold, and are suitable for spring, summer, and sometimes fall fashion. They are often used in tunics, dresses, and skirts. In the world of accessories, ikat print is most commonly used in the form of headbands, scarves, and handbags. 
Below are the ways you can incorporate Ikat Print in your Wardrobe.
