Pure Linen Fanciful Green Dupatta & Katan Silk Green Top Set

Is it a green-on-green set?

Yes, in two different greens. The top is a bright lime with fine tonal stripes, and the dupatta is an earthier olive-khaki. Pink hexagon butis and a pink and lime band on the dupatta add a warm contrast.

How do the stripes on the top show?

They are fine and tonal, the same lime as the base, so they register as texture with a soft sheen. Up close they add depth; from a distance the top reads as a clean, solid lime.

What occasions can I wear it to?

It is an office set first and foremost. It also moves well into an evening dinner, a festive gathering, or a kitty party or brunch, especially if you add statement earrings.

What does Katan silk add?

Katan silk gives the top a refined finish with a natural sheen, so it looks dressed up while remaining comfortable to wear for long hours at work or an evening out. The fine tonal stripes add a little texture too.

Can the colours run?

It is hand dyed, so some dye may release, especially in the first few washes. Wash each piece separately, with a mild detergent, and dry in the shade. Dry cleaning is preferred and avoids the risk.

What length of fabric do I get for the top?

Around 2.4 to 2.5 metres of Katan silk, 44 inches wide. Hand it to your tailor with your preferred kurta length and sleeve so they can plan the cut, keeping the stripes running straight.
