Craft Couture Blockprinted Kota Doria Gray & Mustard Saree

How do the body and pallu colours work together?

The body is a cool, muted grey with white tree sprigs printed across it, while the pallu switches to a warm mustard. That pairing of cool and warm is what sets this saree apart; it looks considered rather than loud.

What details are on the pallu and border?

Red dotted bands run through the mustard pallu, and a wide gold-tone band frames the edge alongside mustard and maroon dotted rows. The detail is concentrated at the end, so the shoulder drape carries most of the print.

Is the fabric see-through?

Yes, Kota Doria is a sheer, translucent weave with small square checks. Wear a petticoat close to the grey body or a skin-close tone so the drape looks even. A lined blouse helps the overall look stay clean.

Will it stay comfortable through a long day?

Pure cotton Kota Doria is lightweight, airy and highly breathable, with a fine texture, which makes it a comfortable choice for office days and everyday wear. Pin the pleats and pallu so the light fabric stays in place through the day.

Will there be small differences in the print?

Yes, and that is expected. Each block is pressed by hand, so you may notice slight shifts in alignment, small variations in colour depth, or faint overlaps where blocks meet. These are signs of a hand-printed saree, not flaws.

Does the saree include a blouse?

Yes, it comes with a blouse, and the 6.3 to 6.4 metre length includes it. The blouse portion is printed in the same design, so cut it away from the end and give it to your tailor to stitch.
