Magenta Purple Katan Silk Suit, Cream Scrollwork | Kairi
A sparse tunic lets the scrollwork borders bring the drama.
Cream paisley is pressed over the magenta, block by block.
Cream paisley on magenta purple, with scrollwork panels at the hem.
Why this piece
- Colour-fast - the cream stays cream, with no bleed on the first wash
- The tunic print is deliberately sparse, so the scrollwork borders carry the drama
- Stitch it to your own fit, up to 4XL, with length customised for larger sizes
Two densities
This set plays one piece against another. The dupatta is covered edge to edge in small cream paisley, close and busy; the tunic length keeps the same motif but spaces it far apart, leaving most of the magenta purple open.
Both are then closed with horizontal panels of scrollwork and paisley - at the base of the tunic and at the ends of the dupatta - which is what makes a single-colour set look composed rather than plain.
Wearing it
Magenta with cream is the safest kind of striking: it reads formal at work, festive at night and photographs beautifully in daylight. It suits a straight kurta with a slim palazzo, and pearls or cream stone jewellery pick up the print without adding a third colour.
A single-colour hand block print on silk asks more of the printer than a busy multi-colour one, because every misplaced stamp shows. Getting it at this price rather than at premium woven-silk prices is the point of the piece.
The set
Top: 2.5 m, 44 to 45 inches wide
Bottom: 2.5 m, 44 to 45 inches wide
Dupatta: 2.5 m, 35 to 36 inches wide
Fabric: Katan silk, hand block printed with hand-carved wooden blocks
Lining: not required, the fabric is opaque; add one only to elevate the look
Stitching: up to 4XL for straight kurta sets, with length customised for larger sizes
Weight: 600 to 650 g for top, bottom and dupatta together
Care: dry clean the first time, then a gentle cold hand wash
Dispatch: dispatched the next working day, even though every metre is printed by hand
Collection: Kairi
The scrollwork panels vary a little in weight from one end to the other. That is ink and pressure from a human hand, and it is what separates this from a printed roll.

Why is the tunic printed more sparsely than the dupatta?
The set plays one piece against the other. The dupatta carries the small cream paisley much more closely, while the tunic length spaces the same motif far apart, leaving most of the magenta purple open. The two densities stop a single-colour print from looking flat.
What are the scrollwork panels?
Horizontal panels of scrollwork and paisley close the base of the tunic and the ends of the dupatta. They are laid last, and they are what make a one-colour set look composed rather than plain.
What cut and jewellery suit it?
A straight kurta with a slim palazzo works well. Pearls or cream stone jewellery pick up the print without adding a third colour, so the outfit stays in its two tones of magenta purple and cream.
Why is a one-colour print harder to do by hand?
Every misplaced stamp shows. The cream is stamped onto the magenta block by block, and every join in the scrollwork is judged by eye against the one before it. You may see the panels vary a little in weight from one end to the other; that is the hand that made it.
Will the cream take on the magenta?
No. The fabric is colour-fast, so the cream stays cream with no bleed on the first wash. Dry clean it the first time, then wash gently in cold water by hand.
Do I need to line it?
No. The katan silk is opaque as it is, even where the tunic is left mostly plain. A lining is optional, if you want a heavier, more formal drape for the kurta.
