Red & White Block Print Katan Silk Suit | Kinara

Crisp white paisley and geometry, printed on a bold red silk ground.

Why this piece

• Only two colours, so every block impression is exposed


• Wide printed bands at the dupatta ends and the tunic hem


• Colour-fast, so the white does not pick up the red

The print

Two colours and nothing else. Floral, paisley and geometric blocks repeat in white across a bold red ground, gathering into prominent rectangular bands that frame the ends of the dupatta and the hem of the tunic while the body stays sparse. A monochrome pairing is unforgiving, which is why the crispness of each impression matters here more than on a busier set.

Styling

This is the one to keep for festivals and day weddings, where red does the work and the white keeps it from looking heavy. A plain red bottom, a straight kurta and the printed hem left uncut is the cleanest way to stitch it. Gold jewellery, and nothing on the wrists if the dupatta is draped wide.

Look closely at where the paisleys meet and you will see the small joins that mark hand block work.
