Adorable Khadi Cotton Handcrafted Violet Suit (T+B+D)

What is the woven pattern on the top fabric?

The top fabric is a soft lilac with closely spaced rows of small woven motifs in a lighter tone. It gives the fabric a gentle texture without any print, so it looks quietly detailed and is easy to dress up or down.

What does the dupatta look like?

The dupatta is cream, framed by a pink temple-style border with touches of magenta. Against the lilac stripes of the top, the cream keeps the set light and fresh, and the pink border adds a little warmth to the cool lavender.

What does the set include?

Three unstitched pieces: fabric for the top, fabric for the bottom and a dupatta. The top and bottom lengths are each 2.4 to 2.5 metres, and the dupatta is 2.3 to 2.4 metres long and 32 to 33 inches wide.

Any tips for stitching it?

Show the rows of motifs off with a simple straight kurta, so the pattern runs uninterrupted, and keep the neckline clean. The bottom fabric suits straight pants or a relaxed salwar. If you plan a lining, choose a thin cotton one to keep the khadi breathable.

How should I wash it?

Hand wash it gently with a mild detergent, and always wash it separately from other clothes, since the colour is hand-dyed. Use cool water, avoid long soaking and wringing, and dry it in the shade so the lilac and pink stay fresh.
