Sacred Loom Kota Silk Temple Border Saree Beige

What is the temple border like on the Sacred Loom saree?

A bold red band of temple triangles runs along the edges of the cream body. It is the classic temple motif, and the strong contrast makes the border the first thing you notice when the saree is draped.

What does the pallu look like?

The pallu has a panel of fine red pinstripes, which ties back to the border colour. The body in between stays plain, with a light slub texture, so the saree has a clean, traditional red-and-cream look.

Does it come with a blouse piece?

Yes. The blouse piece is attached to the saree, and the full length including it is 6.3 to 6.4 metres. A red blouse matching the border gives the classic look; a cream blouse with red piping is a softer option.

Will a light cream saree be sheer?

Kota silk is light and airy and can be slightly sheer, especially in a pale cream like this. Wear a cream or skin-toned petticoat, and avoid a red one, which can show through the body.

Will the red border bleed onto the cream?

Since the saree is hand dyed, dry cleaning is the safest choice. If you hand wash, use a mild detergent, wash it on its own, and dry it in the shade without leaving it bunched up wet, which helps protect the cream areas.

Is it comfortable for warm weather?

Yes. Kota silk is lightweight, airy and breathable, which makes this a comfortable saree for hot weather and long hours, whether at the office or on summer travel. It sits light on the shoulder.
