Behind this piece
The wide stripe is one of the oldest organising principles in Indian handloom, appearing in the pattu silks of Tamil Nadu, the gamchas of Bengal, and the khadi weaves of the Vidarbha plains. This kurta pajama draws on that long tradition of bold, rhythmic patterning, translated here into a PolyRemi fabric whose weight and drape echo the body of a heavier woven cloth. The two colourways, Griffin and Prairie Sand, sit at that particular intersection of earth and atmosphere that Indian weavers have always understood instinctively, where neutral does not mean absent.
How to style
For a festive daytime gathering, wear the Griffin colourway with tan Kolhapuri chappals and a single oxidised silver kada. Prairie Sand pairs beautifully with a fine Pashmina stole in ivory or soft rust, ideal for an evening mehendi or a winter wedding reception. If you prefer a more composed, contemporary register, layer the kurta open over a plain white fitted tee with straight-cut trousers and leather loafers, keeping the pajama folded away. A carved bone button kurta worn beneath the open neck elevates the set further without competing with the stripe.
Fabric & care
PolyRemi holds its structure well but rewards gentle handling. Machine wash on a cold, delicate cycle using a mild liquid detergent, turning the garment inside out to preserve the stripe's surface clarity. Avoid wringing; instead, press out excess water between two clean towels. Dry flat in shade, as direct sunlight can shift the tonal warmth of Prairie Sand over time. Steam rather than iron where possible, keeping the iron on a low synthetic setting if needed. Store folded, never on a hanger, to prevent the shoulder seams from pulling out of line.
