Katan Silk Embroidered Pink & Blue Suit (T+B+D)

What does the embroidery look like?

The kurta fabric has pale leaf motifs arranged in vertical rows within a placed block, standing out clearly against a rich, vivid base. The dupatta carries its own rows of leaves in two contrasting threads, so both pieces share the same leaf design.

How do the kurta and dupatta pair up?

The dupatta is a dark, deep shade, which makes the vivid kurta look even brighter beside it. The shared leaf rows link the two pieces, and the darker dupatta also tones the outfit down a little when you want it less festive.

Where can I wear this set?

It is first a festive set: the vivid base and glossy finish suit festive get-togethers and Diwali visits. It also works for evening dinners, kitty parties and brunches, and as a bright choice for an office party.

Is this a stitched outfit?

No. It is unstitched suit fabric with three pieces: top, bottom and dupatta. Your tailor makes it to your fit. That way the neckline, sleeves and length are all your choice, and the leaf block can be placed where it shows best.

How much fabric is in each piece?

The top is 2.4 to 2.5 metres long and 44 to 45 inches wide, the bottom 2.4 to 2.5 metres long and 42 inches wide, and the dupatta 2.3 to 2.4 metres long and 32 to 33 inches wide. Share these with your tailor when you plan the kurta and bottom style.

Does the dark dupatta need separate washing?

Yes, always wash the dupatta and the kurta fabric separately. Give the set a dry clean for the first wash, then hand wash gently in mild detergent and dry in the shade.
