Bright Hand Dyed Slub Linen Orange Dupatta

What gives this dupatta its streaky look?

The slubs, thick and thin sections in the linen thread, show up clearly on the light coral shade, creating a streaky texture across the body. Pale rounded butis are scattered over it, and the hem finishes in a silvery striped band.

What should I wear with a coral dupatta?

Coral is warm and light, so it sits well with white, cream and beige kurtas. For contrast, try mint, turquoise or navy. It is a gentle way to add colour to a plain outfit without going as bold as a deep orange.

What size is this dupatta?

It is about 2.3 to 2.4 metres long and 35 to 36 inches wide. That is a full-length dupatta, enough to drape over both shoulders, wear pinned on one side, or loop around the neck for a casual look.

How do I keep the coral looking fresh?

Hand wash it gently with a mild detergent, separately from other clothes, since it is hand-dyed. Don't wring it; press out the water and dry it in the shade. Keeping it out of direct sun helps the light coral stay fresh.

Is the textured fabric comfortable to wear?

Yes. The slubs give a visible texture, and slub linen keeps the breathability of linen, so it is comfortable over a cotton kurta on warm days, at the office or while travelling. The light coral and silvery hem band keep the look fresh.
