Beige Leaf Block Print Katan Silk Suit | Bagiya

Small stylised leaves repeat across warm beige, edged by a fine geometric band.

Why this piece

• Opaque silk that needs no lining, though one can be added to elevate it.


• The bottom is printed sparsely, so it stays quiet beneath the busier top.


• Stitch it to your own fit, up to 4XL, with the length customised.

The leaf repeat

The motif is deliberately small - a stylised leaf, printed dense on the top and dupatta so that from a step away the fabric reads as texture rather than pattern. Each leaf was stamped by hand with a carved wooden block, and the tiny variations from one impression to the next, the slight lean, the occasional heavier press, are what mark it as hand work rather than a machine repeat.

The banded border

Where the top is all-over print, the dupatta and the bottom are finished with a linear geometric band that frames them and stops the leaf work running to the edge. It is the detail that makes this set look considered when stitched, and it is worth telling your tailor to keep the band intact at the hem rather than cutting through it.

The silk

Katan silk gives the beige a matte, restrained surface with sheen underneath rather than on top - the reason this earthy palette reads expensive instead of plain. The whole set weighs 600 to 650 grams, and against a premium woven silk suit at several times the price, you are getting genuine hand block craft on silk for a fraction of it.

Wearing it

Beige and brown carry brass, wood and terracotta beautifully, and a tan or oxblood sandal finishes it. It is an easy office suit through the week and moves to a daytime function with heavier jewellery.

How do I know the print is done by hand and not by machine?
Each leaf is stamped individually with a hand-carved wooden block, so the repeat carries small irregularities - a leaf slightly off register, an impression a little deeper than its neighbour. A screen or machine print repeats identically across the whole length. Those variations are the proof of genuine hand block work.

Will the beige and brown fade or bleed when washed?
No. The fabric is colour-fast and does not bleed on the first wash. Dry clean it the first time, then wash it gently in cold water by hand to keep the tones as they arrived.

What does the unstitched set include?
Three pieces: a top of 2.5 metres at 44 to 45 inches wide, a bottom of 2.5 metres at 44 to 45 inches wide, and a dupatta of 2.5 metres at 35 to 36 inches wide. Because nothing is pre-stitched, your tailor can cut the exact silhouette and fit you want.

Can this be stitched for a plus size?
Yes. It can be stitched up to 4XL for a straight kurta set, and the length can be customised for larger sizes. Ask your tailor to keep the geometric band border whole at the hem when cutting.

Do I need to add a lining?
No lining is needed - the fabric is opaque on its own. A lining is optional if you want a fuller fall and a dressier finish.

What if the shade is not what I expected when it arrives?
An exchange is available if the shade or quality is not loved. Beige and brown photograph differently on different screens, so if the tone is not right for you, write to us and we will exchange it.
