Bind & Bloom Cream & Violet Shibori Kota Suit (T+B+D) Set

How does the Shibori look on this Bind & Bloom top?

Violet tie-dye bands and blotches are scattered over a cream ground. With a light base, the colour looks soft and watercolour-like, which gives this set a gentle, muted feel that suits daytime wear.

What is the dupatta like?

It is a sheer dupatta dyed in violet and white waves, with a gold edge. The wavy dye pattern adds movement, and the gold edge gives just enough shine to wear it to a festive lunch without looking overdressed.

Is this a ready-to-wear suit?

No, it comes as unstitched fabric: a top, a bottom and a dupatta, each 2.4 to 2.5 metres. It needs tailoring, which lets you decide the neckline, sleeves and fit. Since the top has a light cream base, ask your tailor for a cream lining for coverage.

Which bottom styles suit it?

Straight pants, a slim salwar or a palazzo with moderate flare all work from the 2.4 to 2.5 metre bottom length. Keep the bottom cut simple so the violet blotches on the top and the wavy dupatta stay the focus of the outfit.

Will the violet dye bleed onto the cream?

Hand-dyed pieces can release a little loose dye, so dry cleaning is preferred. If you hand wash, use a mild detergent, wash quickly without soaking, keep the dupatta separate from the top, and dry in the shade, laid out so damp folds do not press colour onto the cream.

Who makes the Bind & Bloom sets?

They are hand-tied and dyed at our Indiehaat unit in Kota under master artisan Haq Nawaz. Because the folding and binding are done by hand, the blotches and waves fall differently on every set, so yours will carry the same character with its own small variations.
