Behind this piece
Chanderi has woven its gossamer magic for centuries, its looms producing fabric so weightless it was once described as "woven air." Situated in Madhya Pradesh, this historic weaving town has long been a byword for refinement, counting Mughal courts among its earliest patrons. The embroidered dupatta here draws on that same lineage, worked in the Chanderi tradition and paired with a digitally printed cotton-silk kurti fabric whose fluid surface catches light with quiet elegance. Ice Green and Pink Icing are not seasonal whims; they are the colours of early mornings and temple gardens rendered in thread.
How to style
Stitch the kurti fabric into a straight-cut kurta and wear it with ivory palazzo trousers for a Sunday gallery visit or a festive lunch. Drape the Chanderi dupatta loosely over one shoulder, letting its embroidered border graze the wrist. For evening, pair with a fitted silk cigarette pant, block-heeled kolhapuris in tan, and a single strand of freshwater pearls. Those who prefer festive ease may layer the dupatta over a well-cut salwar, anchoring the look with oxidised silver jhumkas and a potli bag in matching cotton-silk.
Fabric & care
Cotton-silk blends deserve considered handling. Hand-wash the kurti fabric separately in cool water with a mild, pH-neutral detergent, using gentle pressure rather than wringing. The Chanderi dupatta, with its delicate embroidery, should be dry-cleaned to preserve the integrity of the worked threads. Dry both pieces in open shade, never direct sunlight, which fades digital prints and weakens silk fibres over time. Store folded in soft muslin, away from humidity and synthetic fabrics. A small neem sachet discourages moths without the harshness of chemical repellents.
