Pankhudi Pastel Yellow Kota Cotton Embroidered Suit (T+D)

Is this suit suitable for a haldi?

Yes, it suits a haldi, and pastel yellow with yellow tulips is a softer take on the traditional colour. It also works for office wear, office parties, kitty parties and brunch, festive days and summer travel. Pair it with a white bottom.

What does the tulip embroidery look like on yellow?

Yellow tulips with green leaf vines and dotted outlines run in a band along the hem of the top, with scattered sprigs above and a few touches in tan. The tonal yellow keeps it soft and sunny, and the sheer dupatta keeps the set light.

Does the set include a bottom?

No, it is a top and dupatta set. That lets you choose the bottom: a straight cotton pant for office, or a palazzo or churidar for festive days. Both pieces are about 2.4 to 2.5 metres long, and both come unstitched.

What is Kota cotton like to wear?

Soft, light and cool. It is pure cotton woven with the small square checks Kota is known for, called khats. It is breathable and ideal for hot weather, and durable enough for regular wear.

Is it easy to care for?

Yes, it is cotton, so it is forgiving. Hand wash it gently with a mild detergent, on its own, and dry it in the shade. A light starch restores crispness if you like a structured kurta. Store it folded in a cotton cloth.

Where is the Pankhudi made?

At the Indiehaat unit in Kota, Rajasthan, under master artisan Haq Nawaz. Each piece is handcrafted, so slight differences in the weave or embroidery from one set to another are part of its character, not defects.
