How to measure
- Shoulder — measure across the back, from the edge of one shoulder to the other.
- Bust — measure around the fullest part of the bust, keeping the tape level.
- Waist — measure around the natural waistline, where the body bends side to side.
- Hips — measure around the fullest part of the hips.
- Length — measure from the base of the collar/waistband down to the hem.
- Sleeve length — measure from the shoulder edge to the wrist.
- Inseam — measure from the crotch seam down to the ankle hem.
Tip: for the closest fit, compare these measurements to a similar garment you already own and love the fit of, rather than relying on body measurements alone.
Made for Diwali parties, sangeet nights and wedding receptions. The silk brocade, with its pattern woven in gold-tone thread, catches the light beautifully in the evening. Wear it over a silk dress or with tailored trousers.

- Buttons: Hand-made, covered in matching fabric
Design
- Single-breasted blazer (2-button opening)

- Rear side vents
- Flap pockets
Fit
- Comfort Fit
- Customisation: Custom sizing available, or choose from standard sizes XS–XXL

- Sofía is 180 cm (5'11") tall and measures 84cm (33") around the chest and 68 cm (27") around the waist and wears an S-Small.
- When in doubt consult our size guide or email us at info@adamleaves.com.
-
A dry wash is recommended.
-
Medium heat ironing, with a press cloth to protect any eco-print.
This piece is structured with interlining and tailored finishing, so we recommend professional dry cleaning rather than washing at home — skip both hand and machine washing.
Spot-clean small marks right away with a soft, dry cloth, and air it out on a broad-shouldered hanger after each wear rather than washing every time.
Store away from direct sunlight to hold its shape and colour. If it's ever caught in rain, don't fold it while damp — hang it to air-dry fully before storing.
Order Dispatch:
All orders are processed and dispatched within 5-10 business days after confirmation.
Estimated Transit Time:
- Within India: Orders are typically delivered within 3-5 business days after dispatch.
- International: Delivery usually takes 5-12 business days, depending on the destination and customs clearance.
Please note: Delivery timelines may vary slightly due to unforeseen circumstances such as weather conditions or public holidays. International orders do not include customs duties, import taxes, or local fees — these are the customer's responsibility to pay upon delivery.
Returns & Exchanges
Most of our garments are made to measure. We offer an easy 7-day exchange for sizing or fit adjustments from the date of delivery. Returns are accepted only if the item arrives damaged, within 3 days of delivery, and require prior confirmation from our team before sending it back — email us at info@adamleaves.com with proper photograph and videos so we can approve the return.
Each Adam Leaves Eco-printed piece is crafted by hand using real flowers and leaves, so variation in the print pattern, color, and placement is a natural mark of the process — not a misprint or damage, and is not eligible for return or exchange.
Every Adam Leaves piece is cut and hand-stitched from natural materials — nothing about our construction process is mass-produced.
Because our fabrics are natural and undergo minimal processing, slight variations in texture, weave, and tone are normal, not a defect.
Lighting conditions and screen calibration can also make colours appear slightly different from what you see here.
These small differences are part of the beauty. Wear it with confidence — it's luxurious, versatile, and made just for you.

Behind The Design
How It's Made
The Material Difference
Silk vs. Polyester
Life-cycle assessment · per kg of finished fiber · cradle-to-gate (raw material extraction through primary fiber processing)
| Silk | Polyester | |
|---|---|---|
| Water | 601–3,000 L | 62–200 L |
| Energy | 110 kWh/kg (≈396 MJ) | 108–217 MJ |
| CO2 | 34.0–80.9 kg | 2.0–27.2 kg |
| Source | Renewable | Fossil fuel |
| Fertilizer & pesticides | Low to moderate | None (industrial synthesis instead) |
| Microplastics | None | High |
| End of life | Biodegradable | Non-biodegradable |
Better Moderate Higher impact
The trade-off: Silk is fully biodegradable and sheds no microplastics, but conventional, mechanised silk production is unusually energy- and carbon-intensive, driven by rearing silkworms and reeling/degumming the raw fiber. Polyester compares favourably on energy and CO2 here, though it remains a non-renewable, non-biodegradable synthetic.
Why the ranges vary: These figures reflect conventional, mechanised auto-loom silk processing — the industry-standard basis for most published data. Adam Leaves sources finished, hand-loomed silk fabric directly from artisan weavers, a slower, less mechanised process not separately measured in this dataset.
Methodology & data notes
- Water: Silk's figure covers mulberry cultivation and the degumming (boiling) process used to extract raw fiber from cocoons. Polyester's water use is mostly for equipment cooling during chemical synthesis.
- Energy: Silk requires significant energy for reeling and degumming raw cocoons, especially in mechanised production. Polyester relies on energy-intensive petroleum cracking and polymerization, but its per-kg figure is comparatively lower.
- CO2: Conventional silk's emissions are driven by energy-intensive processing and sericulture (silkworm rearing). Polyester's emissions vary with the energy grid — coal vs. renewables — used in manufacturing.
- Source: Silk is a protein fiber produced by silkworms feeding on mulberry leaves — renewable, but resource-intensive to process. Polyester is derived entirely from petroleum and natural gas extraction.
- Fertilizer & pesticides: Mulberry cultivation for silk needs moderate fertilizer but relatively few pesticides. Polyester uses no agricultural chemicals, but its production relies on petrochemical catalysts and industrial processing chemicals instead.
- Microplastics: Polyester sheds synthetic microfibers during washing, which accumulate in marine ecosystems. Silk is a natural protein fiber and does not shed plastic.
- End of life: Untreated silk naturally decomposes. Polyester can persist in landfills for centuries, though it can be mechanically recycled.
