Tree Of Life is a label, that brings to you a fusion of India’s rich textile heritage, local skills and contemporary sensibilities.

  3. I would wear this skirt in defiance of Chicago winters, as a rush of color drenched protest in a city perpetually steeped in shades of gray. xo

  4. I, who once lived in long floaty skirts and now fallen into the rut of easy-peasy pants and jeans will rescue my legs from the confines they've been in and wear this skirt everywhere. I'd wear it to the school run and to the beach (but not to the fish market). I'd wear it to parties with a little something on top. The colours are gorgeous and I think I'd feel equally luscious too.

  5. All I can think of when I see this beautiful skirt, is an outdoor food festival at night with bright lights, music, good food & friends and lots of laughter.

  6. My grandmother use to make beautiful long layered skirts in brightest of colours in Rajasthan for me when I was little. I think, I will wear this skirt to surprise my grandmother and relive a bit of a tradition and memories with her.

  17. I would love to wear it to my bharatnatyam dance classes. It will add perfect colour to my look along with anklets. Will also be my priced posession for trips to sunny , bright places around the world! Love the look:)

  18. Definitely would like to wear it on an evening date or a day out with friends 🙂
    This is a traditional skirt and can be teamed up with a nice white cotton top to make it look contemporary.

  20. I would you like to wear this skirt to the temple. As this skirt looks very traditional, it would be very apt to wear it, while I'm going to the temple, as it will make me look very traditional & gorgeous.

  21. I will wear this skirt during my daily darbar, while sitting in the royal garden, under a large mango tree, sipping on margaritas, while the mad hatter describes how magnificent my head is!

  22. I love long skirts and I collect them from everywhere and wear them every chance I get – from pandal hopping at Durga Puja time to over a swimsuit. I just noticed I don't have a Gujarati one. So, I'd wear this one Gujarati style. With a backless choli I have which is in the same colour. After all, if the outfit is ready, the place will present itself 😉

  24. In Istanbul, your swirls join me in the dance of Dervishes. We danced till the skies opened & our feet no longer touched the ground.

  25. percfect perfect for my wife on our wedding anniversary but do the footwears count too….they just matchup so perfect

  30. This beautiful skirt can be worn on a winter and summer day. I will make it work at work or on a weekend. It is so luscious and has such a versatile appeal, that I am afraid I will wear it so often that the threads would start coming off. Doesn't really matter, because I will fix those and wear it again 🙂 … Jahnabee

  51. I've left a comment on both as "rachel ann" , I would love to rock this during monsoon! It would brighten up everyone's day- especially mine!

  52. Oh sweet saccharine of mine.
    You whisper to the summer moon
    And brighter than the sun you shine.
    My hands yearn to touch
    Scattered kohl and dreamy cotton of thine.

    Oh how we'd travel!
    With the stars underneath
    As wisps of clouds unravel.
    Substituting the little black dress
    With freedom to dance wherever I may dwell.

  53. Ooooo! I would wear it to an outdoor wedding that I will attend this summer. I would dance the night away in it! And I could wear it to host an international dinner party, and to an evening with friends, and on and on and on…
