Katan Silk Handcrafted White & Beige Suit (T+B+D)

What does this suit set look like?

The top fabric is off-white with soft silver-grey vertical stripes, and the dupatta is beige with light brown bands near its fringed ends. All three pieces come as unstitched katan silk fabric with a jacquard self-weave.

Can the dupatta be draped in different ways?

Yes. At 2.3 to 2.4 metres long and 32 to 33 inches wide, it works pinned on one shoulder for work, draped over both shoulders for a festive look, or worn loosely around the neck. Its fringed or tasselled ends hang nicely when left free.

How should I style this set?

Neutral sets take colour well: a bright potli, coloured jhumkas or a bold lip lift it for a festive day. For work, keep it neutral with silver studs and tan juttis. Store it carefully, as light fabric shows marks.

How do I wash and care for it?

Wash gently by hand in mild detergent once the first dry clean is done, and dry it flat or on a hanger in the shade. Press on low heat with a cotton cloth over the fabric. Store it in a cotton or muslin cloth, away from moisture.

What is Katan silk?

Katan is a traditional silk fabric made from pure silk threads, known for its smooth, shiny surface and fine texture. It's long been used in Indian sarees and occasion wear. Here it comes as unstitched fabric with jacquard self-weaving for the top, bottom and dupatta.
