Sarongs from Bali and India

(33 products)

Our sarong collection brings together the skilled handiwork of Bali and India — hand-painted, block-printed and cut from lightweight rayon and reclaimed sari fabric. Worn at the beach, pooled around the waist after a swim or knotted at the shoulder for an evening, a sarong is one of the most versatile pieces in a slow-living wardrobe. These are not fast-fashion prints; they are made to be worn, washed and worn again, gaining character with every use.

What's inside the collection

This range centres on the handmade sarongs of Bali and India — from mandala motifs and peacock designs to Celtic lucky coins and yin yang symbols. You will find stand-alone sarongs for those who prefer to tie their own, alongside sets of four assorted pieces that make it easy to pack light for a trip or gift one to a friend. Block-printed Bali sarongs in tropical leaf and floral patterns sit alongside hand-painted evil eye designs and nomad sari beach dresses cut from recycled Indian fabric. Whether you are looking for a single statement piece or a curated throws & pareos edit for your boutique shelf, this collection is where to start.

How to choose a sarong

The right sarong comes down to three things: print, fabric and size. Rayon sarongs from Bali are soft, drape beautifully and work well in warm weather — ideal for beach resort wear or a languid summer evening. Sari-fabric sarongs carry more texture and a unique colour variation since each piece is cut from a different section of cloth. For sets, the four-colour packs are a practical choice: a different colour for each day, or one to keep and three to pass on. Mandala sarongs tend to be the most detailed; if a subtler print is what you need, the tropical leaf and Celtic sun designs offer a quieter pattern without losing character.

Ways to wear and style

  • Knotted at the hip over swimwear or yoga pants for a poolside look.
  • Worn as a dress, gathered at one shoulder — particularly effective with the sari-style beach dresses.
  • Used as a lightweight cover-up over a linen top and shorts for market days or al fresco lunches.
  • Carried as a pareo to the spa or draped over a sun-lounger in the evening.

If you are building a full slow-living capsule wardrobe, a sarong pairs naturally with boho hats and mindful spiritual t-shirts for a cohesive, relaxed aesthetic — all pieces chosen for longevity rather than trend.

Frequently asked questions

What fabric are these sarongs made from?

Most of our Bali sarongs are cut from lightweight rayon, which is soft against the skin, quick-drying and comfortable in heat. The nomad and sari-style beach dresses use reclaimed Indian sari fabric, which carries more texture and individual colour variation — each piece is slightly different.

How do I tie a sarong?

The most common approach is to hold one corner in each hand, wrap the fabric around your waist, and tie a loose knot at the hip. For a dress-style drape, fold the sarong in half lengthwise, place it across your shoulders with the fold at the back, and tie the two corners at one side of the body. Both styles require no sizing — the fabric adjusts to you.

Are these sarongs one size?

Yes. Sarongs are designed to be adjustable by nature of how they are tied, so a single sarong will fit a range of body types. Some sets include multiple sizes or colourways within one pack; the individual product listing will make this clear.

How should I wash my sarong?

We recommend a gentle hand wash in cool water with a mild detergent. Rayon sarongs can be machine-washed on a delicate cycle, though hand washing will help preserve the block print and hand-painted designs over time. Air dry flat or on a line out of direct sunlight.

Do the sets include matching or assorted colours?

The multi-packs — such as the Bali tropical block print four-pack — include four different colourways of the same design, giving you variety without the hassle of choosing individually. Sets of yin yang and Celtic sarongs are similarly assorted, while individual listings offer a single chosen piece.
