Noor-e-Banaras Cotton Suit (T+B+D) Warm Peach

What's woven on the Warm Peach set?

The peach top carries a lattice of light curved lines with flower sprays in red, yellow and green, and a floral vine border along the hem. The dupatta has a gold-toned woven border with small butis. The overall look is warm and soft.

How long is the dupatta?

The dupatta is 2.4 to 2.5 metres long. That's enough to drape over one shoulder for work, across both shoulders for a festive look, or loosely around the neck. Its woven border and motifs look best left visible at the front.

Which occasions does it suit?

Brunches and kitty parties first, where the soft peach and woven motifs look fresh and easy. It also makes smart office wear. For festivals, choose a flared cut and add jhumkas, and the zari motifs hold their own.

Is the Warm Peach set comfortable for a summer brunch?

Yes. Banarasi cotton is lightweight and breathable, and peach looks fresh in daylight. Pair it with straight pants, nude juttis and small gold jhumkas, and drape the dupatta loosely on one shoulder.

How do I wash it?

Dry cleaning is preferred, but you can also hand wash gently with a mild detergent. Wash it separately, don't wring or scrub the woven motifs, and dry it in the shade. Press on the reverse at low to medium heat.
