Violet Katan Silk Suit in Fuchsia & Blue Paisley | Kairi
Fuchsia and blue paisley with edges already finished.
Wide horizontal bands close the drape, no extra trim to add.
Fuchsia and blue paisley, printed sprig by sprig across all three pieces.
Why this piece
- Colour-fast - the fuchsia does not run into the blue on the first wash
- Wide horizontal bands finish the edges, so the dupatta needs no extra trim
- A complete unstitched set: top, bottom and dupatta, stitched to your fit
The print
This is the loud one. Fuchsia and blue hold the ground in near-equal measure, small floral sprigs fill the space between the paisleys, and touches of gold and white keep the two strong colours from flattening into each other.
The density is deliberate - the blocks are stamped close, so from a distance the set reads as a rich violet, and only up close do the separate colours resolve.
Wearing it
A print this saturated wants nothing else competing with it: plain juttis, a single bangle stack, hair off the face. It is the piece for a mehendi, a Diwali lunch or a day wedding, and it holds up just as well as an office kurta when you cut the dupatta out of the styling.
Most block-print suits at this price are cotton. This is silk, with the lustre and drape that comes with it, and the same genuine hand-stamped craft.
The set
Top: 2.5 m, 44 to 45 inches wide
Bottom: 2.5 m, 44 to 45 inches wide
Dupatta: 2.5 m, 35 to 36 inches wide
Fabric: Katan silk, hand block printed with hand-carved wooden blocks
Lining: not required, the fabric is opaque; add one only to elevate the look
Stitching: up to 4XL for straight kurta sets, with length customised for larger sizes
Weight: 600 to 650 g for top, bottom and dupatta together
Care: dry clean the first time, then a gentle cold hand wash
Dispatch: dispatched the next working day, even though every metre is printed by hand
Collection: Kairi
No two lengths of this print are identical. The blocks are aligned by eye, so the repeat wanders a little - the signature of work done by hand.

Why does it look violet from a distance?
Fuchsia and blue hold the ground in near-equal measure, and the blocks are stamped close, so from a distance they blend into a rich violet. Only up close do the separate colours resolve, with small floral sprigs between the paisleys and touches of gold and white keeping the two strong colours from flattening.
Does the dupatta need a border added?
No. Wide horizontal bands finish the dupatta ends, so it needs no extra trim. The dupatta also changes scale: where the top is a dense small paisley, the dupatta sits on a blue ground with large, open paisley motifs, so the two read as a pair rather than one print repeated.
How do I style a print this loud?
Let nothing compete with it: plain juttis, a single bangle stack, hair off the face. For a working day it holds up well as an office kurta if you leave the dupatta out of the styling.
How are two strong colours lined up by hand?
One colour at a time, each block waiting for the last to dry. With a print this dense, the Bhagalpur printer lines up fuchsia against blue over and over without a guide rail. Where they meet you will find a hair of overlap here and a hair of gap there.
Will the fuchsia run into the blue?
No. The fabric is colour-fast, and the fuchsia does not run into the blue on the first wash. Dry clean it once, then a gentle cold hand wash keeps both colours where they belong.
Why silk rather than a cotton block print?
Most block-print suits at this price are cotton. This is katan silk, so a saturated print like this gets the lustre and drape that come with silk, while the craft stays the same genuine hand stamping.
