Mridini Silkmark Tussar Silk Embroidery Saree Peach

Is peach a good colour for tussar?

It's a lovely one. Peach picks up tussar's natural golden sheen and looks warm and soft, especially in daylight. It suits brunches, kitty lunches and gentle festive dressing. Pearls, rose gold or light kundan pieces keep the look delicate.

What blouse would you pair with this saree?

The matching blouse piece keeps it soft and seamless. For contrast, try teal, mint, or a deeper coral or rust, and for an evening, a gold or bronze blouse gives it more weight. Avoid very pale blouses that wash the whole look out.

How long is the blouse piece?

The matching blouse piece is 80 cm, which your tailor can work with for most standard blouse designs; your tailor can advise on full sleeves or a very structured cut. The saree itself is about 5.5 to 5.6 metres. The blouse the model wears is for styling only and is not included.

Is the Mridini handwoven?

Yes. It is a Silkmark tussar silk handloom saree, so the base fabric is woven on a hand-operated loom before the embroidery is added. That is why you may notice slight irregularities in the texture; they are the sign of a handcrafted piece rather than a flaw.

Can I hand wash the Mridini?

Please don't. It is dry clean only, which is the safest way to look after both the tussar and the lime-green embroidery. Store it in its own bag in a dry spot, refold it occasionally, and give it some fresh, dry air now and then.
