Noor-e-Linen Hand Dyed Jet Black Saree

How is the pallu designed?

The solid body leads into a pallu of banded silver stripes, matching the silver borders that run along the length. The contrast is sharp and graphic, and tassels finish the end, so the Noor-e-Linen design stays striking without any heavy work.

Is the length enough for a regular drape?

The saree is 5.4 to 5.5 metres long and comes with an 80 cm blouse piece. That is a standard length for a regular drape with front pleats and the striped pallu over the shoulder.

How do I keep the black from fading?

Wash it gently by hand in a mild detergent, separately from other clothes, and always dry it in the shade, since strong sunlight dulls dark dyes. Avoid harsh detergents or bleach to keep the black deep.

What blouse goes with it?

A silver or metallic blouse echoes the border for a dressier look. Red, mustard or emerald give strong contrast, and a white blouse makes a sharp monochrome pairing. Oxidised silver jewellery suits the slubbed texture of the linen.

Is it comfortable all day?

Yes. Linen breathes and stays cool, so even a dark saree doesn't feel heavy in warm weather. It begins crisp and gets softer with every wash, so the drape becomes more fluid over time.
