Pure Linen Elegant Pink Dupatta & Katan Silk Pink Top Set

Is the set all one colour?

Nearly. The top is rose pink and the dupatta a slightly deeper mauve-pink, so the set reads tone on tone rather than contrasting. A magenta band on the dupatta and lime and pink tassels add just enough lift to keep it from looking flat.

What are the dupatta's dimensions?

The linen dupatta is 2.3 to 2.4 metres long and 32 to 33 inches wide. That gives enough length to drape it loosely around the neck, wear it over one shoulder, or pin it at the shoulder for a neater look.

How does the fabric feel?

The Katan silk top has a smooth surface and a soft sheen, while the pure linen dupatta is breathable with a crisp texture that becomes softer and more supple with each wash. Linen is prized for keeping you cool in warm weather, so the set stays comfortable.

How do I keep the pink looking good?

Wash each piece separately, since the set is hand-dyed. Use a mild detergent, hand wash gently and dry in the shade rather than strong sun. Dry cleaning is the preferred way to look after the rose pink top and mauve-pink dupatta and keep them looking even.

Do I need a lining for the top?

The set doesn't include lining fabric. A soft cotton lining in a matching pink helps a silk kurta sit comfortably and hold its shape. If you prefer a lighter, unlined kurta, ask your tailor to finish the inside seams neatly.

Where does it come from?

It is hand-dyed by artisans in Bhagalpur. Because the dyeing is done by hand, slight variations in shade between the top and dupatta, or within a single piece, are part of its handmade nature.
