The combination is asymmetric on purpose - motifs answer each other rather than mirroring, which is unusual in a block print and is what gives the set its movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe finish is matte rather than glossy, so the grey reads modern and stays easy to wear on an ordinary Tuesday.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSilk, fit and styling\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eKatan silk drapes gracefully and stays opaque, so no lining is needed, and the three pieces together weigh 600 to 650 g. It stitches to 4XL with the length customisable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGrey takes silver, glass and oxidised metal better than gold; a straight kurta with a slim salwar keeps the print reading clean, and the fringed dupatta needs nothing else to finish the look. Hand block work on Katan silk from Bhagalpur is a combination the market almost never puts together - most grey block prints you will find are cotton.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSet details\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTop:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.5 metres, 44 to 45 inches wide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBottom:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.5 metres, 44 to 45 inches wide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDupatta:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.5 metres, 35 to 36 inches wide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 600 to 650 g for all three pieces together\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStitching:\u003c\/strong\u003e straight kurta set up to 4XL, length customisable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLining:\u003c\/strong\u003e not required, the fabric is opaque; add one only to elevate the look\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCare:\u003c\/strong\u003e dry clean the first wash, then a gentle cold hand wash\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDispatch:\u003c\/strong\u003e printed by hand, yet dispatched the next working day\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCollection:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/chaupal\"\u003eChaupal\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe motifs sit a little differently at every repeat, which is how a hand-placed block behaves.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Indiehaat","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46608505438528,"sku":"30829TBKS350","price":7199.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0726\/1454\/3680\/files\/30829TBKS350_1.jpg?v=1759553695","url":"https:\/\/global.indiehaat.com\/products\/1608-katan-silk-suit-piece-grey-color-handcrafted-with-bottom-and-dupatta","provider":"Indiehaat.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
