Silkmark Tussar Beaming Madhubani Blue & Beige Saree

What does the Beaming Madhubani look like?

The beige body is densely printed all over with Madhubani-style village scenes, wheels and square medallions in red, mustard and black. A wide royal blue border and a plain royal blue pallu frame it, and the strong blue keeps the busy print in check.

Does royal blue read cool or warm?

Cool. Royal blue is a deep, cool shade, and the warm reds and mustards in the printed body balance it. Gold jewellery warms the look up, while silver keeps it cool and crisp for an office day.

Is the blouse fabric separate or attached?

Attached. The blouse piece comes as part of the same length of tussar, in the pallu colour. Your tailor separates it and stitches it to your size and preferred neckline, so you get a blouse that matches the pallu exactly.

What does tussar feel like?

Tussar, also called Kosa silk, comes from the cocoons of wild silkworms. It is prized for its rich texture and natural sheen, and this saree is Silkmark certified, the Silk Mark Organisation of India's assurance of authentic, pure silk.

What care does it need after a long event?

Let it air for a few hours in the shade, away from direct sun, so any moisture evaporates before you fold it. Then fold it into a breathable cotton bag and store it on its own. When it needs cleaning, send it to a dry cleaner; it should not be washed at home.
