Jasmine Embroidery Pure Mul Cotton Saree Sunny Yellow

What does the embroidery look like?

Tiny cream and orange flower sprigs are embroidered all over the bright sunny yellow body, small and scattered so the yellow stays the main colour. The pallu ends in yellow tassels, which add a playful finish when you drape it.

Would this saree suit a haldi ceremony?

Yes. The bright yellow is a natural fit for a haldi, and it also suits festive occasions, kitty parties or brunches, office wear and summer travel. Light, airy mul cotton is easy to wear outdoors for a long ceremony.

Which blouse would suit it?

No blouse is included. A green or magenta blouse gives a classic festive contrast, while white or ivory keeps it light. An orange blouse picks up the orange in the tiny flower sprigs nicely.

How long is the saree?

About 5.4 to 5.5 metres, without a blouse piece. That is a comfortable length for a standard drape with pleats and a full pallu, and the light mul makes it easy to handle.

How do I care for it?

Hand wash it gently in mild detergent, separately from the rest of the wash, and dry it in the shade. Keep the embroidered flowers away from rough handling: fold the saree with the worked side inward and lift it out of the water rather than wringing it. That is all it needs to stay soft and keep the bright yellow fresh.
