1. What makes hand painted denim special?

Hand painted denim is more than just clothing—it’s a piece of art! Each garment is individually designed and painted by skilled artisans, making every item unique. The use of premium, eco-friendly paints and thoughtful artistry sets these pieces apart from mass-produced printed styles.

2. How is the denim painted?

Every piece undergoes a careful, multi-step process:

High-quality, pre-washed denim is selected to ensure longevity and comfort.
Designs are sketched freehand or with light stencil guidelines.
Special fabric paints are applied in layers by hand, then heat-set for durability.
Each item is air-dried, checked for quality, and signed by the artist for authenticity.

3. Will the paint wash off or fade?

No! When cared for properly, the paint is long-lasting and resists washing out or fading. Eco-friendly, professional-grade fabric paints are used, and each garment is cured to ensure the design remains vibrant over time.

4. How do I care for hand painted denim?

Wash your item inside out on gentle, cold cycle.
Use mild, bleach-free detergents.
Avoid soaking for extended periods.
Air dry away from direct sunlight instead of tumble drying.
Iron inside out, never directly on the painted area.

This helps maintain the artwork and color for years.

5. What sizes and fits are available?

Gotamoda.com offers hand painted denim in a variety of fits—skinny, straight, wide-leg, cropped, jackets, tops, skirts, and more. Each product page includes a sizing guide. If you’re unsure, contact us and we’ll recommend the best size for your measurements.

6. How long does a custom order take?

Custom pieces are handmade to order, so please allow 1-3 weeks for design, painting, curing, and shipping. You’ll get updates throughout the process.

7. Are hand painted denim pieces sustainable?

Absolutely! Each piece is made using high-quality, often upcycled or responsibly sourced denim and eco-friendly paints. Supporting hand painted fashion means supporting slow, sustainable, and ethical fashion movements.

8. Will my denim top/jacket/jeans look exactly like the photo?

Because everything is painted by hand, expect minor artistic variations. This ensures your item is truly one-of-a-kind, with its own charm and personality.

09. Can you repaint or refresh my old denim?

Many artists offer denim “makeovers” where an existing, gently used denim item is prepped and painted with a custom design. Email us with your request to check availability.
