The Story & Provenance
An Ode to The Red Mosque, Pettah
“Among Pettah's restless streets, an unexpected pattern stops you.”
Among Pettah's restless streets stands the candy-striped Jumma Mosque, its red-and-white arches unmistakable against the noise. That rhythm of pattern, contrast and architecture shapes this notched-collar, A-line dress — a quiet discovery carried out of the old city.
