Marketing Team

Oct 06, 2023

Be it fashion or soft furnishings, cotton is the king of every arena! The heart of human civilization since time immemorial, cotton items have been a part of every culture and are a way of life! To raise more awareness about this material and promote fair making of cotton, Cotton-4 countries – Benin, Burkina Faso, Chad, and Mali proposed the World Trade Organization to mark the 7th Of October as World Cotton Day.

Wondering why all the hype about World Cotton Day? Cotton is more than just a fabric to a lot of communities around the globe. It is a source of their livelihood for millions of people across 5 cotton-growing continents. Growing and exporting cotton is vital for developed countries but it is the backbone of economically challenged nations. So, Cotton Day is observed to create an inclusive, productive, innovative and fair growing + trading of cotton.
What are the benefits of cotton?
Cotton takes less water to grow, is renewable, biodegradable, and durable. Hence, 100 cotton fabric tops the list of sustainable fabrics in the textile industry.

All cotton items are easy to maintain.
Cotton items are all-season friendly i.e., indeterminate in nature and can be worn even in the harshest conditions.
Cotton is super versatile – can be used to make apparel, home furnishings and other items like filters. And did you know a ton of cottonseeds produce about 320 pounds of oil?
5 Cotton Items Everyone Must Own
As we all celebrate World Cotton Day, bring the unmatched magic of premium cotton home! Luxuriate in the comfort of these hand picked cotton items:
Cotton Dohars
Trust us, the fluffier the dohar, the deeper the sleep! Even better if the dohar is reversible as you can style them two ways. Most cotton dohars are perfect all year round. However, if you stay in Mumbai-like temperature, they make a great pick for light winters as well. For heavier winters or AC rooms, cotton comforters are recommended. To keep them new-looking for longer, wrap them in cotton duvet covers.
