Handcrafted Fanciful Kota Silk Pink Jacquard Saree

Does the pink colour run in the first wash?

The colour is hand-dyed, so wash it separately, and dry cleaning is the preferred option. For the first few washes, keep it away from light fabrics and use cold water with a mild detergent. Dry it in the shade to protect the dye.

Where does the woven detail sit on this saree?

The body is a plain bright pink, so the detail is kept to the edges and the end. The border carries narrow gold stripes with small leaf-shaped gold motifs, and the pallu has wide gold bands woven across it, finished with tassels. That zari work gives the saree a dressier finish while the body stays simple.

How should I style the blouse with a pink like this?

The running blouse in the same fabric gives you a fully matched look. Pinks also take a contrast blouse well: deep green, navy or a gold brocade all lift it. Keep the jewellery light, such as small jhumkas or a fine chain, so the woven pattern stays the focus.

Is Kota silk comfortable in hot weather?

Yes. Kota is known as a lightweight, sheer fabric with an airy texture, woven from a blend of cotton and silk yarns, which is why it is a popular choice in warm climates. It suits summer outings and travel as well as office days and brunches.

Is the blouse piece included?

Yes. The blouse piece comes attached to the saree, and the total length of 6.3 to 6.4 metres includes it. Cut it from the end of the saree and have it tailored to your measurements.

Will the shade look exactly like the photographs?

Very close, but screens differ, so the hue may look a touch warmer or cooler on your phone than in person. Because the saree is hand-dyed, small variations in depth of colour from one piece to another are normal.
