Embroidered Bright Kota Doria Suit Green (Top+Dupatta+Bottom)

What does this suit look like up close?

An apple green Kota Doria with dense all-over white thread embroidery of small flower medallions and curling vines across the top. The sheer dupatta carries round floral medallions and a scalloped edge. The white work softens the brightness of the green.

Is it too vivid for office?

Not if you balance it. Wear the top with a white or beige pant instead of the matching bottom, pin the dupatta neatly, and keep jewellery minimal. Save the head-to-toe green look for days when you want more colour.

Is the suit stitched?

No, it is unstitched suit material, so the kurta and bottom are made to your measurements. The top piece is about 2.4 to 2.5 metres, the bottom about 2.4 to 2.5 metres, and the dupatta about 2.3 to 2.4 metres. Plan for a cotton lining as well.

Is the fabric see-through? Will I need a lining?

Kota Doria is a sheer, airy weave, so most people line the kurta. Lining fabric is not included, so buy about the same length of soft cotton or mul in a matching or skin-toned shade. A lining keeps the top opaque and comfortable for office wear.

Where is it made?

It is handcrafted at the Indiehaat unit in Kota, Rajasthan, under master artisan Haq Nawaz. Kota is where Kota Doria originates, so the cloth and the embroidery come from the same town. Small variations between pieces are part of that handwork.
