Leher Baani Kota Doria Tepchi Saree Sea Green

Is it a good choice for a mehndi?

Yes. It is first a festive saree, and the soft sea-green shade sits well at a mehndi, especially a daytime one. Beyond that it suits office parties, kitty lunches and brunches, summer travel and office days, and the airy kota is easy to wear through all of them.

Which blouse should I wear, since none is included?

A cream or ivory blouse echoes the thread embroidery and keeps the look soft. A cotton blouse in the saree colour gives a seamless look, and a contrast blouse makes it dressier. Choose breathable cotton to match kota's airy feel.

Is kota doria sheer?

Yes. Kota doria has a sheer finish with its fine square-check weave, which is what keeps it so airy. Wear a matching cotton petticoat; a slightly deeper shade than the saree helps the pleats look clean and keeps the sea green even.

Will it stay comfortable through a long day?

Yes. Kota doria is lightweight and breathable, and tepchi is a fine running stitch that keeps the fabric light. The crisp texture and airy weave make it comfortable through long office days, daytime functions and summer travel.

How should I wash it?

Hand wash it gently with a mild detergent, and wash it separately. Dry it in the shade to protect the sea-green colour. Since the cream tepchi vines are fine thread work, don't scrub or wring the saree; press the water out gently instead.
