Silkmark Certified Vivid Pure Tussar Cutwork Red Saree

What is the Vivid red like?

It reads as a warm coral red with a soft sheen, and the cutwork is a narrow lattice border running along the edges and pallu. It is one of the more understated cutwork designs, letting the colour lead.

What blouse comes with it?

The blouse piece is attached and comes in the pallu colour, within a total length of 6.3-6.4 metres. For a festive lift, a gold blouse suits the coral well; a plain coral or ivory blouse keeps it quieter for the office. Cut the attached piece off and have it tailored.

Which occasions suit it?

Festive gatherings come first, where the red tussar and cutwork feel celebratory. It also carries well to an evening dinner, an office party, and a wedding or reception as a guest. The slim border keeps it smart enough for the office too; switch to small studs and a plain blouse for work, and gold jewellery for the evening.

What is Tussar silk?

Tussar, or Kosa, silk comes from wild silkworm cocoons. It has a rich texture and natural sheen, and this saree is Silkmark certified as pure Tussar. Its slightly uneven surface is part of its character and suits handwork like the lattice border on this saree.

How should I care for it?

Dry clean only. Store it on its own in a dry place, refold it along different lines every so often, and air it in dry weather. Fold so the lattice border sits inside the fold where it will not be crushed, and keep it out of direct sunlight.
