TAV PACIFIC is made from a unique blend of traditional motifs and modern elements of Pacific cultures; hand - carved onto printing boards by Tavioni family artists. Block printing and painting are all done by hand, on natural fibres such as cotton, lycra, rayon, sheeting, silk, and linen. This artisanal production process means that each piece is unique and no two pieces are exactly the same.

QUESTIONS ABOUT SHIPPING
If you have any further questions relating to shipping & delivery, please contact our team at customerservice@tavpacific.com.
Our sizing is designed to be suited to fit various body shapes. We use materials with stretch or elastic – lined waists for this purpose, and often our customers find they can fit two sizes in our products.
A smaller size which is included within your body measurement range will provide a more fitting silhouette, while bigger sizes within your body measurement range will offer a more comfortable fit.
Please note that this is only a guide. If you are still unsure which is the best size for you, we are here to help. Contact us at customerservice@tavpacific.com for assistance.
