Sea Green Katan Silk Suit, Turquoise & Mauve Panels | Kairi
Contrast panels printed in, never stitched on.
Gold-touched paisley runs between the turquoise and mauve grounds.
Turquoise ground, mauve panels, gold-touched paisley in between.
Why this piece
- Colour-fast - the mauve panels do not bleed into the turquoise
- Contrasting panelled borders on a saturated ground, printed not stitched
- Light at 600 to 650 g for all three pieces, and opaque enough to skip a lining
The panels
The ground is a saturated sea green turquoise, printed all over with small repeating florals and paisley shapes touched with gold. Against it sit panels in a mauve tint, bordered with linear horizontal bands of geometric and paisley work.
The effect is layered rather than busy: one colour family, two temperatures, and a band of pattern to mark where they change. Small white and dark blue details keep the print from going flat.
Wearing it
Sea green suits almost everyone and photographs cool, so this is a good pick for daytime events and long office days alike. Silver or white metal jewellery works better than gold here, and a mauve or white inner reinforces the panels.
Colour work this layered normally shows up on woven silk sets at several times the price. Here it is achieved with carved blocks and repeated passes by hand.
The set
Top: 2.5 m, 44 to 45 inches wide
Bottom: 2.5 m, 44 to 45 inches wide
Dupatta: 2.5 m, 35 to 36 inches wide
Fabric: Katan silk, hand block printed with hand-carved wooden blocks
Lining: not required, the fabric is opaque; add one only to elevate the look
Stitching: up to 4XL for straight kurta sets, with length customised for larger sizes
Weight: 600 to 650 g for top, bottom and dupatta together
Care: dry clean the first time, then a gentle cold hand wash
Dispatch: dispatched the next working day, even though every metre is printed by hand
Collection: Kairi
The gold touches land more heavily in some repeats than others. That is a block being inked and pressed by hand, not a roller running at a constant speed.

How are the mauve panels used?
Against the saturated sea-green turquoise sit panels in a mauve tint, bordered with linear horizontal bands of geometric and paisley work. The dupatta is mostly mauve with paisley borders. One colour family, two temperatures, and a band of pattern to mark the change.
Are the mauve panels a separate fabric?
No. They are printed onto the same katan silk, not stitched on, so there are no seams between the turquoise and mauve. The borders that mark the change are hand-stamped too.
Why might the gold touches vary?
The small florals and paisleys on the turquoise are touched with gold, and because each colour is stamped separately by hand, the gold details sit slightly differently from one repeat to the next. That is a block being inked and pressed by hand; machine and screen printing lay every repeat down identically.
What jewellery and inner suit it?
Silver or white metal works better than gold against sea green, and it keeps the outfit in its cool palette. A mauve or white inner reinforces the panels, especially if the kurta has a slit or a deeper neckline.
How many layers of printing does it take?
Several. Every extra colour needs another block, another pass down the table and another wait for the last colour to dry: the turquoise ground, the mauve panels, the gold in the paisleys and the fine white and blue details, each placed by eye against the one below.
Will the mauve bleed into the turquoise?
No. The fabric is colour-fast, and the mauve panels do not bleed into the turquoise on the first wash, so the line between the two grounds stays clean. Dry clean it first, then a gentle cold hand wash.
