All sass, swing and summer ease. The Jalabi Dress earns its place as a warm-weather favourite with a flattering bias cut bodice and breezy cap sleeves that hit the sweet spot between comfort and style. She moves beautifully, feels light against the skin, and goes effortlessly from a lazy afternoon to an evening out. A true summertime staple. Available in S/M and L/XL.

Features

Light, lively, and made for sunlit days.

A summer favourite for good reason, the Jalabi Dress blends flattering structure with effortless movement. Featuring a bias-cut bodice, soft cap sleeves, and a gently scooped neckline (front and back), it skims the body in all the right places while leaving room to breathe and move.

From the bodice, she flows into an easy, mid-shin length — with side seam pockets for everyday ease and a little extra charm. Whether barefoot or styled with our Athena Sandals, Jalabi brings the joy.

Available in a range of vibrant, hand block printed designs.

Textile & Process

The Textile

100% Cotton Voile

Soft and weightless with a light, flowing feel. Semi-sheer with a fine, gentle softness to the touch, moving beautifully on the body.

The Process

Hand Block Printed in India

Hand block printing is a traditional and highly skilled artisan technique, where fabric is printed by hand using intricately carved rosewood blocks.

It's a process that takes time, and begins with preparing the cloth and carving the blocks. The dye master then mixes the colours by hand and memory, each print is placed with precision, guided by eye and experience — a steady rhythm, applying the print in layers to bring the pattern to life.

Once printed, the fabric is washed, dried, and checked — revealing a textile shaped by time, skill, and human touch.

Subtle variations may occur, and are part of what makes each piece unique.

Sizing

Garment Measurements:

Bust: S/M 92-110cm | L/XL 100-124cm | XXXL 110-132cm

The Jalabi is a bias-cut bodice, therefore bust measurements indicate the circumference when relaxed, and when at full extension.

Armhole circumference: S/M 52cm | L/XL 56cm | XXXL 60cm

Shoulder to Hem: S/M 116cm | L/XL 121cm | XXXL 123cm

Hem circumference: 750-800cm

Measurements are shown in centimetres (cm) and taken with the garment laid flat. They refer to the garment itself, not your body.

Fit may vary between styles, with some designed for a relaxed fit and others more shaped through the bust, waist, or hips.

As most SoulSong garments are made from natural cotton with minimal stretch, we recommend allowing room for ease and movement when selecting your size.

For general sizing information and measuring tips, please refer to our Size Guide.

Garment Care

Handmade garments need extra loving care. Gently hand wash in COLD water using a very small amount of natural detergent. Do not soak or leave wet in a laundry basket. Do not place in a dryer. Drape or hang in the shade to dry. Leave un-ironed for that natural cotton look and feel.

We recommend washing Indigo pieces separately in cold salty water several times to help release any excess dye.

Lovingly handmade in India, slight variations in colour are part of the unique beauty of each garment.

Slow Fashion

Giving Back

For us, slow fashion is about a more thoughtful and sustainable approach to the clothes we wear. We believe garments should be made with care — using natural fibres, traditional techniques, small batch production, and timeless design made to be worn and loved for years to come.

By choosing consciously made clothing, you’re supporting skilled artisans, reducing unnecessary waste, and embracing a slower, more meaningful way of dressing — one that values quality, human touch, and a gentler impact on the planet.
