Calm Hand Dyed Pure Linen Sea Green Dupatta

What is special about the border?

The body stays a light, fresh green while the borders carry wide check panels in lavender and purple. Both are soft, cool shades, so the contrast feels gentle rather than loud. Small tassels at the ends finish the piece.

Is the green and lavender combination hard to pair?

Less than you'd think. White, off-white, light grey and pale pink kurtas all work, and a solid lavender or purple kurta picks up the border directly. For something different, wear it over deep purple or navy so the light green body becomes the bright part of the outfit.

Will it keep me cool in summer?

Yes. Pure linen is made from flax fibre and is known for its breathability and for keeping you cool in hot weather. This one looks light and slightly sheer, so it is an easy layer for a warm day, and the linen becomes softer and more supple with each wash.

How should I wash it?

Dry cleaning is preferred, or a gentle hand wash in a mild detergent. Because it is hand dyed, always wash it separately. Dry it in the shade, and don't leave it damp and folded against other clothes.

How long and wide is it?

It is 2.3 to 2.4 metres long and 35 to 36 inches wide. That gives you enough length for a classic drape over one shoulder or both, and enough width to fold it into a neat pleat. One dupatta is included.
