Metallic Blue Polka Dot Blockprint Katan Silk Suit | Chaupar

Polka dots and loose florals fall in uneven blocks, not a flat repeat.

• An asymmetric layout, with dotted sections set against abstract floral ones instead of one repeating field.


• Colour-fast, so the off-white and muted pink stay clean against the deep ground.


• Opaque, so it stitches unlined, with a lining left as a way to elevate rather than a requirement.

The layout

Sections of small polka dots sit beside sections of abstract floral shapes in off-white and muted pink, placed asymmetrically over a deep metallic blue that reads almost charcoal in shadow. The dupatta is edged with a scrolling vine motif along its long sides.

Styling

The dark, cool ground makes this the most formal set in the group, at home in an office and at an evening dinner alike. A muted pink dupatta pin or piping pulls the accent colour forward, and silver rather than gold keeps the metallic depth of the blue intact.

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

An asymmetric print cannot be laid out on a grid, so the printer decides where each block falls as the length moves under their hands. On this metallic blue Katan silk, a dotted block and a floral block are placed against each other in Bhagalpur, and the scrolling vine edge is added along the dupatta. Every impression is placed by hand, so the small shifts where two blocks meet are the artisan's signature rather than a fault.

1. The print is not perfectly even. Is that a defect?
No, it is the opposite. Each motif is stamped from a hand-carved wooden block, so the register shifts slightly and no two impressions are identical. That small variation is what separates a genuine hand block print from a screen or machine print.

2. Will the off-white and pink bleed into the blue?
No. The fabric is colour-fast and does not bleed on the first wash, so lighter areas of the print stay clean.

3. What does the unstitched set include?
Three separate unstitched pieces: top, bottom and dupatta. The top and bottom are 2.5 metres each and 44 to 45 inches wide, and the dupatta is 2.5 metres and 35 to 36 inches wide.

4. How do I care for it?
Dry clean the first wash. After that a gentle cold hand wash is fine, and the fabric stays colour-fast.

5. Can I exchange it if the shade is not what I expected?
Yes. If you do not love the shade or the quality when it arrives, an exchange is available.
