Deep Blue & Rust Katan Silk Block Print Suit | Kinara

Deep blue printed all over, a rust-orange dupatta, and a plain blue bottom.

Why this piece

• Rust-orange dupatta against a deep blue top, printed to contrast


• Small floral sprigs, diamonds and scrollwork in a matte finish


• Colour-fast, so the rust does not run onto the blue

The contrast

The top carries an all-over repeat of small floral sprigs, diamonds and scrollwork in a matte finish. The dupatta answers it in rust-orange, panelled and bordered with wide geometric bands at each end, framed by thin stripes. The bottom is left plain deep blue, which stops the set from becoming busy once it is stitched.

Styling

A plain bottom under a printed kurta is the easiest silhouette to wear to an office, and the rust dupatta is what carries it into a festive afternoon. Light green appears in flecks through the print, so a green bangle or bindi is a quiet way to pull it out. The contrast comes from separate printings by hand rather than a woven contrast, which is why this sits well below premium woven silk suit prices.

Small shifts where one block meets the next are the mark of hand printing, not a fault in the cloth.
