Vibrant Banarasi Kashmiri Modal Silk Saree Cream & Blue

What sets the design apart?

The cream body is dotted with hexagonal medallions in grey-blue, spaced evenly so the ground stays light and open. A wide teal brocade border runs along the edge, and the same teal deepens into a heavily worked, tasselled pallu, so the colour gathers toward the ends of the drape.

How does Kashmiri modal silk feel to wear?

Modal silk blends the softness of modal with the sheen of silk, so it feels smooth against the skin and falls fluidly. That softness makes it comfortable for long hours, whether at the office or through a festive function, while the brocade border and pallu add richness to the drape.

How should I drape the heavy pallu?

Since the teal pallu carries most of the work, pleat it neatly and pin it at the shoulder so its full width and tassels hang at the back. The wide teal border will then frame the front pleats against the cream body. Keep the pleats crisp so the medallions line up.

What blouse colour should I choose?

Teal is the obvious match and makes the border look continuous. A cream or ivory blouse with teal piping keeps it light for daytime, while silver or grey-blue picks up the medallions. Warm, bright golds can fight with the cool teal and silver tones, so lean toward cooler shades.

Is a blouse piece included?

Yes. A blouse piece is attached to the saree, within the total length of 6.3 to 6.4 metres. Have it cut away and tailored to your measurements, in whichever neckline and sleeve style you prefer.

How do I keep a light-coloured silk saree fresh?

It is dry clean only. A cream body shows marks more readily, so keep it away from food, perfume and damp. Store it on its own in a dry place, refold it from time to time and air it in dry weather. If it gets wet, dry it in shade.
