Mustard Yellow Floral Block Print Katan Silk Suit | Bagiya

Pink and blue flowers sit spaced across mustard yellow silk.

The top is printed sparingly, with each flower given room to sit on the mustard, while the dupatta carries the same motif all over at a fuller density and finishes in a raw fringed edge. The contrast does the work here: cool pink and blue against a warm, matte mustard that stays flattering in daylight.

Hand block printed in Bhagalpur

A sparse print is the harder one to place. Every flower is stamped individually with a hand-carved wooden block, and the artisan decides by eye where each one lands, which is why the spacing breathes rather than repeating mechanically. Slight variation in ink and register is the signature of that hand work. The fabric is colour-fast and does not bleed on the first wash.

The complete set

• Top: 2.5 m, 44 to 45 inches wide


• Bottom: 2.5 m, 44 to 45 inches wide


• Dupatta: 2.5 m, 35 to 36 inches wide


• All three pieces together weigh only 600 to 650 g

All three pieces together weigh no more than a light jacket, so a full silk set can be worn through an office day or a long function without weight. It is opaque and needs no lining, though a lining can be added to elevate the look, and it can be stitched up to 4XL with the length customised for larger sizes.

Care

Dry clean the first wash, then a gentle cold hand wash at home.

Handmade, and still dispatched the next working day.

There is a particular skill in printing sparingly. The Bhagalpur artisan inks a carved wooden block, judges the empty mustard ahead of them and sets the flower down where it belongs, then leaves space before the next. Nothing marks the placement out in advance; the rhythm lives in the printer's hand and eye. The dupatta is worked closer, motif against motif, and its edge left raw and fringed the way the workshop has always finished them.

1. How should I wash and care for this suit?
Dry clean the first wash, then a gentle cold hand wash at home. The fabric is colour-fast and does not bleed on the first wash, so the pink and blue will not run into the mustard.

2. Is a mustard silk set heavy to wear all day?
No. All three pieces together weigh only 600 to 650 g, which is light enough for a full office day or a long function.

3. Is the print really block printed by hand?
Yes. Each flower is stamped individually with a hand-carved wooden block by artisans in Bhagalpur. In a spaced-out print like this the hand is obvious, as the placement varies and the ink sits slightly differently on each impression.

4. What does the unstitched set include?
A top of 2.5 m at 44 to 45 inches wide, a bottom of 2.5 m at 44 to 45 inches wide, and a dupatta of 2.5 m at 35 to 36 inches wide.

5. Will I need a lining under the mustard?
No. The fabric is opaque and needs no lining, though a lining can be added if you want a more elevated fall.

6. Can it be stitched for a fuller silhouette?
Yes, up to 4XL for a straight kurta set, and the length can be customised for larger sizes. An exchange is available if the shade or quality is not what you hoped for.
