Noor-e-Linen Hand Dyed Pure Striped Saree

What colours are the stripes on the Pure Striped saree?

Wide bands of muted mauve-plum alternate with white. The tone is quiet and cool, so the saree reads gentle and grown-up even with large stripes. The same stripes carry into the pallu, giving an even look from end to end.

Are there any finishing details?

The pallu end carries maroon tassels, a shade deeper than the mauve stripes. They add a touch of richness at the edge and a little swing as you walk, without breaking the calm palette of the saree.

Why might my saree differ slightly from the picture?

Each piece is dyed by hand, so the exact depth of the mauve and the edges between stripes can vary a little between sarees. Purples also look different from one screen to another. These variations come from the handwork itself, which is what keeps every saree individual.

Is there a blouse piece, and how should I style it?

Yes, the saree comes with a blouse piece of 80 cm. For styling, a maroon blouse echoes the tassels, a deep plum keeps the look tonal, and a white blouse lets the stripes stay crisp and light. Oxidised silver jewellery sits well with the cool mauve.

Will linen feel heavy or warm over a long day?

No. Linen is lightweight and breathable, and it is well suited to hot and humid climates. It has a crisp texture that softens over time with wear, which makes this an easy saree for long office days, everyday wear or summer travel.

Any tips for washing it?

Wash it separately by hand with a mild detergent, as hand-dyed colours can bleed a little, especially in the early washes. Do not leave it soaking, and dry it in the shade, since direct sun can dull the mauve over time.
