Meet the Shakti Shirt—a refined essential from LilaBare's collection that brings together precision tailoring and gentle intention. Crafted in a unique blend of rain-fed Kenyan cotton and our signature artisanal handloom, this gender-fluid silhouette offers elevated comfort for both urban landscapes and slow, sunlit escapes.
The perfect balance between drama and function, the Shakti shirt is sure to be the most comfortable statement piece you in your wardrobe. The floor length jacket-shirt hybrid can be buttoned up or down, allowing for endless styles to achieve with just one piece. With relaxed tailoring and an elongated cut, the Shakti Shirt creates a subtle statement without saying too much. Its clean lines are softened by the organic texture of the handloom, while real mother-of-pearl buttons add a touch of natural luminosity. Each piece is dyed using low-impact techniques, championing LilaBare’s commitment to sustainable luxury.
Whether layered for the city or worn open over swimwear by the coast, this versatile shirt adapts to your pace and place. It's not just a shirt—it’s a canvas of culture, care, and craft.
