Vaanya Pure Linen Elegant Handloom Saree

What does this saree look like?

Large checks in magenta, blue, purple and yellow run across the whole saree, with touches of orange, green and white. A few squares carry tiny scattered dots, and a thin pale edge finishes the sides. The pallu continues the same check as the body, and bright tassels finish the end.

What is the pallu finish?

The pallu carries the same rainbow check as the body and ends in bright tassels, which pick up the cheerful colours of the weave. Since the pallu isn't a separate design, the tassels give the end of the drape its finishing touch, especially when you leave the pallu open.

Is pure linen breathable?

Yes. Linen is a natural fabric known for its breathable texture, and it allows airflow, so it feels light on the skin. It stays cool through long hours in warm weather, and it becomes softer with every wash, which makes it easy to reach for on office days, everyday wear and travel.

What blouse would you pair?

A purple or magenta blouse looks elegant with the check, a yellow blouse brightens it further, and a white one keeps it simple. The saree comes with a running blouse, so you can also have that stitched for a matching look. Silver jewellery suits the mix of cool and warm colours.

Is a running blouse included?

Yes, the saree comes with a running blouse in the same fabric. The total length is 6.4 to 6.5 metres, including the blouse portion. Cut it off before stitching, and leave a little seam allowance so your tailor has room to adjust the fit.

Will the colours run?

Always wash it separately, in cool water with a mild detergent, since several dyed yarns sit side by side. Avoid soaking, and dry it in the shade, away from direct sun.
