Shira has updated her dyeing method so that the indigo won't shed dye as it is worn. However, all indigo has the potential to shed until it fades or is washed a few times. Because of this, she recommends that you not wear light colors when carrying this bag. Shira has an M.A. in Fashion Design from the Savannah College of Art and Design.
