Decorous Katan Silk Madhubani Beige Suit (T+B+D)

Where is the print on this suit?

The cream top is plain, and the print sits on the dupatta, which carries figures and paisleys in blue, mustard and grey. That keeps the kurta quiet and makes the dupatta the focus, a good choice if you prefer a subtle look.

What bottom styling suits it?

Since the top is quiet, a straight pant keeps the look calm and tonal, or have the bottom fabric tailored as a palazzo so the outfit feels more relaxed. The blue and mustard in the dupatta suit silver or oxidised jewellery.

Is the suit stitched?

No, it comes as unstitched fabric for top, bottom and dupatta, so you can have it tailored to your measurements and preferred style. The dupatta is ready to wear. The top fabric is 2.4 to 2.5 metres by 44 to 45 inches, so you can choose the kurta length and cut you like.

What is Madhubani block print?

It combines the motifs of Madhubani folk art from Bihar with block printing: artisans carve wooden blocks with Madhubani-inspired designs and press them onto the fabric. The designs often show scenes from nature, mythology or everyday life, with a unique cultural charm.

Will the print fade or run?

Dry cleaning is preferred for the first wash; after that, a gentle hand wash with a mild detergent works. Wash it separately, use cold water, never soak, and dry it in the shade, as strong sun can fade printed colours over time.

How should I drape the dupatta?

At about 2.3 to 2.4 metres by 32 to 33 inches, the dupatta suits a neat fold over one shoulder for work or an open drape across both shoulders to show the print. Katan has a smooth, shiny surface, so pin it lightly at the shoulder if you want it to stay put.
