Ethnic Glamour Karivaa Silk Sea Green Saree

What is Karivaa silk?

Karivaa silk is a silk fabric known for its soft texture, rich sheen, smooth feel and durability. It holds vibrant colours well, which suits the teal-green body and the gold floral jaal woven across it.

How does the brocade show on the sea green?

The brocade designs are woven into the fabric rather than printed, so the patterns have a rich, textured surface that catches the light as you move. Against sea green, a cool blue-leaning shade, the metallic patterning stands out clearly, giving the saree its statement look.

Is 5.5 metres long enough to drape?

The saree measures 5.5 to 5.6 metres, which is a standard drape length and enough for a regular Nivi-style drape with pleats and a pallu over the shoulder for most heights. If you prefer very generous pleats or a long pallu, ask your draper to plan for it.

Which blouse comes with it?

The saree comes with the same blouse the model is wearing, so the blouse you see her in is the one you will receive. Look at its colour and pattern closely before deciding on your stitching style.

How do I care for it?

Dry clean only. Keep it in its own bag in a dry place, change the folds now and then, and air it in non-humid weather so moisture does not settle in the brocade. If it ever gets damp, dry it in the shade.

What jewellery suits a sea green brocade?

Gold and kundan both sit beautifully against sea green and pick up the metallic brocade. For a wedding, a choker or a long haar with jhumkas works well; for a dinner, statement earrings and a slim bangle are enough, since the saree already carries the richness.
