Noble Echo Pure Cotton Blockprint Short Kurta Brick Red

What does the sprig print look like?

Small cream and tan flower sprigs are scattered over a brick-red ground, with plenty of space between them. More of the earthy red shows through, so the kurta looks light and casual, with a soft, sprinkled feel rather than a dense pattern.

What sizes and length are available?

It comes in sizes 38 to 46, 27 to 28 inches long, with full sleeves. The short length works well with jeans, straight pants and palazzos, and the sleeves can be worn full or folded once on hot afternoons.

Is it comfortable in the heat?

Yes. Pure 60x60 cotton is fine and lightweight, woven with 60s count yarn in warp and weft. It breathes easily, so it stays comfortable through warm days, and it feels soft and smooth on the skin.

How can I dress it up?

Pair it with a cream or beige palazzo, add an olive or mustard dupatta, and finish with oxidised jhumkas or antique gold. The earthy brick red takes traditional jewellery well, so a few pieces go a long way.

How should I wash it?

Hand wash separately in cold water with a mild detergent, and avoid long soaks. Dry it in the shade and iron on low heat from the reverse side, which keeps the brick red ground and cream sprigs looking fresh.

Where is it made?

It is hand block printed in Jaipur, where artisans stamp each motif onto the cotton with carved wooden blocks. That hand process is why the sprigs vary a little in shape and colour across the kurta.
