Behind this piece
Tie-dye is one of India's oldest resist-dyeing traditions, practised across Rajasthan and Gujarat under names like Bandhani and Shibori-adjacent Leheriya. Here, that ancient impulse meets a contemporary sensibility: the green-and-white or orange-and-white palette recalls the sun-bleached bazaars of Jodhpur and the festival grounds of Kutch. Cotton, the fibre of Indian summers, holds the dye with quiet honesty. Straight stitch embroidery, a foundational hand-technique across North Indian craft traditions, traces deliberate lines across the surface. Sequins catch available light without demanding attention. The result is celebratory, considered, and grounded in recognisable Indian textile memory.
How to style
For a daytime festivity, pair the orange-and-white set with tan Kolhapuri chappals and a single strand of wooden beads. The green-and-white reads crisply at an evening mehendi alongside gold Jhumkas and ivory mojris. For a relaxed cultural gathering or art-house opening, layer either colourway beneath a loosely draped Chanderi dupatta in ivory, allowing the tie-dye to carry the conversation. Keep accessories minimal: the sequin detailing and embroidery already provide sufficient visual texture. A slim silver kada on one wrist completes each of these three occasions without competing with the kurta's pattern.
Fabric & care
Cotton breathes generously but requires respectful handling to preserve both the tie-dye gradients and the sequin work. Hand-wash in cold water using a mild, pH-neutral detergent; machine washing risks distorting the resist-dyed boundaries and loosening sequin threads. Wash the orange and green colourways separately for the first two washes, as residual dye may release. Dry flat in shade to prevent uneven fading. Do not wring. Iron on a low-to-medium cotton setting, reverse-side only, protecting the sequins and straight stitch embroidery from direct heat. Store loosely folded, away from prolonged humidity.
