Govind weaves kota doria — the feather-light cotton known for its fine square weave. On his handloom, cotton and a touch of silk become a fabric you can wear through the hottest afternoon.

It is the cloth we reach for when the brief is “ethnic, but I still want to breathe”. Govind’s loom is the reason an Ekohum summer set feels as good as it looks.

A good summer weave should let the air through. The rest is just pattern.
