Artisanal Kota Doria Cotton Floral Embroidery Saree Yellow

What does the border look like?

A wide band of pink and coral roses runs along the border over white lattice, finished with a grey-toned edge. The soft grey keeps the pale yellow ground gentle and gives the saree a garden-fresh feel.

How does the body pattern look?

The body has a fine white diamond lattice with tiny pink sprigs inside the diamonds. On the pale lemon ground it looks soft and delicate, almost like a trellis, and the same pattern carries on into the pallu.

How sheer is it?

Quite sheer, as Kota Doria is an open weave and the pale ground shows what is underneath. Wear a pale yellow or skin-tone petticoat, plain and smooth, so the lattice reads cleanly.

Which blouse colours suit it?

A pink or coral blouse picks up the roses. For a haldi, a deeper yellow or mustard blouse adds warmth. White keeps it fresh for office wear, and a grey blouse matches the border edge for something more unusual.

Is a blouse piece included?

Yes. A blouse piece is included within the 6.3 to 6.4 metre length, so the saree and blouse come together. You can have the blouse tailored to your measurements and your preferred sleeve and neckline.

How should I clean it?

Handwash gently with a mild detergent and wash it separately. Don't leave it soaking, don't wring it, and dry it in the shade so the pale ground and the rose colours stay fresh.
