Handpainted Kota Doria Suit Green (Top+Dupatta+Bottom)

What does the painting on this suit look like?

Lime roses with maroon leaf sprays are painted along the hem on a pale pistachio ground. The maroon leaves are an unexpected touch that gives the light, fresh base some depth. It is painted by hand at our Kota unit under master artisan Haq Nawaz, so each rose has its own brush character.

Which bottom styles can I get made?

The set includes 2.2 to 2.3 metres of bottom fabric. A straight pant, cigarette pant or churidar keeps the look neat and lets the painted hem show. For a palazzo, check with your tailor whether the length suits your size and the flare you want.

Will my suit look exactly like the one shown?

It will be very close. Hand painting means the roses and leaves can vary a little in shape, size and shading, and colour can look slightly different on different screens. Small irregularities are part of handcrafted work.

Is it comfortable for long hours?

Yes. Kota Doria is a light, airy weave of cotton and silk yarns, made for warm weather. With a soft cotton lining it stays comfortable through a full workday, and the sheer matching dupatta is just as light to carry.

Should I add a lining?

Yes, for both kurta and bottom. Kota Doria is sheer, so a pale green, white or skin-tone cotton lining gives coverage while keeping the fabric light. Lining is not part of the set.

How do I wash it?

Hand wash gently in cold water with a mild detergent, separately from other clothes. Do not rub or wring the painted hem. Dry it in the shade. Treat all three pieces the same way.
