Pankhudi Gota Patti Kota Cotton Silk Rich Green Suit (T+D)

What does this suit look like?

A rich green with fine pale diagonal stripes in a lehariya style. A cream gota patti neckline frames the top, and the dupatta edge is finished with pink and gold piping, with small buttis scattered across. The cream and pink keep the green fresh rather than heavy.

Is it a good mehndi outfit?

Yes. Green with gota patti suits a mehndi well, and the cream and pink accents keep it bright for a day function. It also works for festive days, office parties, summer travel and a kitty party or brunch.

What is included?

Top and dupatta fabric, each 2.4 to 2.5 metres, unstitched. A plain bottom is available for Rs.180. Nothing is pre-stitched, so you control the fit and neckline. Check the lengths with your tailor before choosing a very long or flared kurta.

Do I need a lining?

Kota cotton silk is light and airy, so a soft cotton lining makes the kurta more comfortable and opaque. Lining is not part of the set. A matching shade keeps the colour of the kurta true.

How should I wash it?

Gently by hand with a mild detergent, washed separately, and dried in the shade. Iron on low from the reverse to protect the gota. A muslin cloth over the gota while ironing protects the shine.
