Sunny Kota Doria Suit (T+B+D) Yellow Embroidered

Can I wear this suit to a haldi?

Yes; it suits a haldi, and a ready-stitched pale lemon suit is easy to wear for one. It also works for the office, office parties, summer travel, kitty parties and brunch, and festive days, with the light Kota Doria and white thread work keeping it fresh.

What detailing does the suit have?

The pale lemon kurta has white thread work at the neckline and is finished at the hem with a wide white lace trim. The sheer dupatta carries scattered white flower motifs. It relies on lace and light embroidery rather than heavy work, which keeps the whole set fresh and airy.

How long are the kurti and the pant?

The kurti is about 46 to 47 inches long, and the sleeves are about 16 to 17 inches. The pant is about 38 to 39 inches long. The suit comes stitched in sizes up to 44 (XXXL), so check these lengths against a kurta you already own before you choose.

Can I wash it at home?

We would not. It is dry clean only, which protects the embroidery and the delicate Kota Doria weave. Store it in a separate cloth bag in a dry place, away from moisture, refold it occasionally so creases do not set, and air it now and then in dry weather.

What is Kota Doria?

A lightweight, sheer fabric woven on traditional pit looms in Kota, Rajasthan, from cotton and silk yarns. Its fine square checks give it an airy texture and delicate drape, which makes it comfortable in warm weather.

Is the stitched suit see-through?

Kota Doria is a lightweight, sheer weave by nature, and the dupatta in particular is see-through. Plan to wear a slip or camisole under the kurti if you prefer more coverage, especially with a pale lemon shade like this. A white or pale yellow slip stays almost invisible.
