Decorous Pure Linen Floral Embroidered Blue Saree

How much embroidery is there on the body?

Very little, by design. Small red-pink flowers are spaced out across the sky-blue body as buti, leaving most of the fabric clear. The result is a light, clean look that stays easy to wear and never feels heavy.

What do the pallu and border look like?

The pallu is striped in silver and finished with tassels, and the border is a narrow silver band with a green edge. The green is a fresh touch against the blue and gives the outline of the saree a crisp finish.

Where can I wear it?

Wear it to work first, where the clear blue and sparse flowers keep things neat. It is just as at home at a kitty party or brunch, on summer trips and travel, and for a temple visit or puja.

How can I style the blouse?

The attached blouse piece is in the pallu colour, which keeps the look soft. For a bit of contrast, a green blouse picks up the edge, while a red or pink one echoes the little flowers across the body.

How does the linen feel?

Pure linen has a characteristic crisp texture and a natural lustre, and it becomes softer and more supple over time. This saree has a light sheen and looks light in weight, so it suits warm days at the office or on a summer trip.

How do I take care of it?

It is dry clean only. Keep it in a separate bag in a dry place, refold it now and then, and let it air in dry weather. If it ever needs drying, dry it in the shade.
