Precious Pure Tissue Linen Handdyed Saree Cream

How do the pink pallu and striped border work together?

The cream body is plain, and the deep pink pallu brings strong colour at the shoulder. A yellow-and-pink striped border runs along the edges, linking the two. The effect is bright and cheerful, with most of the colour concentrated in the pallu.

What colour is the attached blouse?

The blouse fabric comes in the pallu colour, so you get the deep pink, not the cream. It comes attached to the saree, and your tailor cuts and stitches it. A pink blouse against the cream body continues the pallu colour beautifully.

What should I wear under a cream saree?

Tissue linen is slightly sheer, and light cream shows more of what is underneath. Choose a cream or skin-tone petticoat, never a coloured one. A well-fitted petticoat with no heavy seams gives the smoothest look.

How should I wash a cream saree with a deep pink pallu?

Wash it separately and quickly, without soaking. Dry cleaning is preferred. If you hand wash, use cold water and a mild detergent, and dry it in the shade straight away, so the pink pallu and the cream body stay clean.

Is it comfortable in the heat?

Yes. Tissue linen is light and breathable, and the light cream body keeps it looking fresh on warm days. It has a soft, airy feel, so it stays easy to wear through a long day or on summer travel.

How can I style it?

Let the pink lead. Pink or gold jewellery, a pink blouse and a simple bun keep it classic. For a modern twist, try a yellow blouse that picks up the border, or a sleeveless white cotton blouse for daytime.
