A black starburst print, answered by a pink floral dupatta.
- A true contrast pairing: black geometric starbursts on the top and bottom, pink floral clusters on the dupatta.
- Hand-carved wooden blocks stamped in Bhagalpur, with the small register shifts that mark real hand work.
- Opaque, so black stitches up without a lining and without losing depth.
Black and pink
Repeating geometric starbursts in yellow and white cover the black pieces, while the dupatta switches to floral clusters on pink, both closed with linear banded edges. It is the boldest contrast pairing in the collection and the reason this set does not need any styling help.
Styling
Contrast dupattas do the work of an accessory, so keep everything else quiet: a plain black straight kurta, minimal jewellery, and the pink left to carry the outfit. It moves easily from an office day to a formal evening without a change of clothes.

Because every impression is stamped by hand, small shifts in the print are part of the piece, not a fault in it.
