Noor-e-Banaras Brocade Cotton Beige Suit (T+B+D)

What does the woven scene on the top show?

A grey band at the hem shows a white cow among lotus flowers in purple and navy, with lotus motifs placed across the beige ground above it. The dupatta is woven in stripes. On the light beige base, the purple lotuses and the white cow stand out clearly.

How long is the dupatta?

The dupatta is 2.4 to 2.5 metres long. That's enough to drape over one shoulder, across both shoulders for a festive look, or loosely around the neck for an evening out. Its stripes show best when the length falls open at the front.

What jewellery suits the cow and lotus motifs?

Oxidised silver suits the folk feel of the cow and lotus motifs, while antique gold warms up the beige ground. A purple or plum bag picks up the lotus colour. Keep it simple for a dinner with small studs, and add jhumkas for a festive day.

Can I wash it at home?

Yes, gently by hand with a mild detergent, though dry cleaning is preferred. Always wash it on its own, press the water out in a towel rather than wringing, and dry it in the shade to protect the colours.

Will the kurta need a lining?

It's optional. A thin cotton lining protects the woven motifs from catching, gives a smoother fall and adds comfort against the skin. If the top fabric looks see-through when you hold it to the light, a lining is worth adding.

Where can I wear it?

It suits festive gatherings, where the woven lotus and cow motifs and a touch of gold jewellery feel celebratory. It also works for evening dinners; pair it with oxidised silver or simple studs for a quieter look. The unstitched fabric lets you choose a kurta style that suits the event.
