If you love color and prints, then BERTA SKETCH by HIMALAYA is definitely for you. What a lovely print! Wavy, almost hand-drawn stripes in petrol, turquoise, dusty pink, rust, purple, and soft neutral tones. Nice and colorful, but thanks to the muted tones, it’s definitely not loud.
And just as nice: this longsleeve is made of 95% organic cotton with 5% elastane. Soft, supple, and comfortably stretchy. The kind of shirt that's easy to pair with jeans, but also looks great under a cardigan, jacket, or sweater vest.
Why is the HIMALAYA BERTA SKETCH so great?
Especially that print, of course. The design is both graphic and organic due to the wavy lines. And look at how many colors are in it! That makes BERTA incredibly easy to style: pick one color from the print for your pants, skirt, or cardigan, and you're good to go.

How does the HIMALAYA BERTA SKETCH fit?
The BERTA has a normal to slightly looser fit. It doesn't sit tight against the body, but it's not an oversized shirt either. Just nice and comfortable.
Choose your usual size. The 5% elastane provides a little extra freedom of movement and helps the shirt hold its shape.
What is this longsleeve made of?
The BERTA consists of 95% organic cotton and 5% elastane. The organic cotton is GOTS-certified. GOTS doesn't just look at the organic fibers used; it also sets requirements for processing and social conditions within the production chain.
Furthermore, the longsleeve is fair-trade produced. Exactly how we like our clothing: beautiful on the outside and with a better story behind it.
How do you style the BERTA SKETCH?
Really, you can go in any direction. Keep the rest simple with dark blue or gray pants and let the print do the work. Or, choose pants or a cardigan in petrol, purple, rust, or dusty pink to highlight one of the colors in the design.
And this is also an ideal longsleeve for wearing under a solid-colored wool cardigan or vest: you see just enough of the print to instantly make a simple outfit look a lot more fun.
How do you wash the BERTA SKETCH?
Wash the longsleeve at a low temperature and preferably inside out so the colors and print stay beautiful for as long as possible. Do not use fabric softener, and please don't put it in the dryer. Just let it air dry – the clothes and we are much happier for it.
