Jamdani Charm Pure Cotton Tant Off-White Saree

What is the border like?

A red border with a pink floral band runs along the sheer off-white body. The pink softens the red, and the band picks up the pink stripes on the pallu, so the saree looks fresh and light.

What is the pallu like?

Pink stripes run across the pallu, carrying the colour of the floral band into the end of the drape. Small dark buti scattered over the body keep the middle of the saree simple, so the border and pallu stand out.

How sheer is it, and what goes under it?

The off-white body is sheer, so wear an off-white or cream petticoat. A bright white petticoat can look stark beneath it, while a matched shade blends in and keeps the drape soft.

Which blouse should I wear with it?

Red or pink picks up the border, while a deep maroon or bottle green gives contrast. A cotton blouse with a touch of red piping ties it together neatly with the border.

Is it comfortable to wear all day?

Yes. It is a light, airy pure cotton tant, so it breathes well and stays cool through warm, humid days. It is easy to drape and does not weigh you down.

Why do the buti vary slightly?

Each buti is woven in by hand with extra weft threads, so their size and spacing shift a little across the saree. These minor irregularities are part of handloom Jamdani and show the work behind it.
