Noor Kota Silk Pink Weaving Border Saree

How does the gold border work on this Noor?

A gold floral border is woven into both edges on the handloom, so it is part of the fabric rather than stitched on. It gives the plain deep pink body a clean frame and pairs with the striped gold pallu to look dressed up without any added embroidery.

How should I drape it to show off the pallu?

Leave the pallu open and slightly long over the shoulder so the wide gold stripes and tassels show. For a neater office look, pleat the pallu narrowly and pin it; the stripes still peep through at the edges and the border lines up along the pleats.

Which occasions does this Noor suit?

It is a smart choice for workwear first, light and easy to manage at a desk all day. It also suits festive celebrations with family, dinners and evenings out, and summer travel, where the airy Kota weave keeps you cool.

What should I wear under it?

Kota has a slight sheerness, so wear a petticoat in a matching pink or a close tone. A smooth cotton petticoat is a comfortable choice under this airy weave and keeps the drape looking even in daylight.

Which blouse colours go well with a deep pink?

Gold is the easy festive match. For contrast, try parrot green, teal or deep purple, all of which look rich next to pink and gold. For work, a pink blouse in the same shade with a gold edge keeps it simple and polished.

How do I wash it?

Gentle hand wash with a mild detergent is all it needs. Wash it separately, do not wring it, and dry it in the shade so the colour and zari stay bright. Keep the tassels from tangling by smoothing them out while it dries.
