Dazzling Banarasi Silk Linen Handloom Pink Saree

What does the Dazzling saree look like?

It is a vivid magenta pink with a plain, sheer-looking body and a wide gold floral brocade on the pallu and hem. The gold stands out against the pink, so the effect is rich and festive while the body stays simple.

What blouse goes with magenta and gold brocade?

A navy blouse gives a striking contrast, while a gold blouse makes it more festive and picks up the brocade. The attached blouse piece can also be stitched for a coordinated look. Gold jewellery suits it, especially with the pallu worn open.

Is it comfortable to wear all day?

Silk linen is soft and breathable, so it is easy to carry from a morning at work into an evening out. The body is plain, with the gold brocade kept to the pallu and hem, so the drape stays simple through the day.

What is the total length?

It measures 6.3 to 6.4 metres, including the attached blouse piece. Once the blouse is cut off, you have a comfortable length for a regular drape with full pleats and a pallu that falls well, with enough left over to wear the brocade pallu open over the shoulder so the woven border shows along the pleats.

What should I do after wearing it?

Hang it in a shaded, airy spot for a few hours so any moisture evaporates, then fold it into a breathable bag. Don't store it damp or in plastic. When it needs cleaning, send it to a dry cleaner rather than washing at home.
