Illuminating Pure Linen Floral Embroidered Biege Saree

What is on the pallu?

The pallu is silver-white and carries one large cluster of embroidered flowers instead of a repeating pattern, so it reads almost like a single picture when it falls over your shoulder. Tassels finish the end and add a little movement.

How busy is the body of the saree?

Not busy at all. The body has only tiny flower sprigs scattered at a distance, with touches of red, yellow and sky blue. Most of the fabric stays plain, which leaves the pallu as the main feature.

What is the border like?

A thin sky-blue edge runs along the saree. It is a small detail, but it gives a clean finish and picks up the blue in the tiny sprigs, so the whole saree feels coordinated.

Is linen easy to drape?

Linen is crisp when new and becomes softer and more supple over time. At 6.3 to 6.4 metres there is enough length for regular pleats and a full pallu, and a light steam before draping helps. Pin the pleats so the silver-white pallu falls neatly.

Does it come with a blouse piece?

Yes, a blouse piece in the pallu colour comes attached and is cut off before stitching. With a silver-white pallu, the blouse stays understated, or you can bring in sky blue from the edge for a little contrast.

Can I wash it at home?

It is dry clean only. To keep it in good shape between wears, store it in a separate bag in a dry place, change the folds regularly and air it in dry weather, drying it in the shade if needed.
