Silkmark Tussar Poetic Madhubani Green & Black Saree

What does the Poetic Madhubani look like?

A plain bright green body pairs with a black-on-beige patchwork pallu of checks, motif bands and a framed figure panel, with a black border along the edge. The green is vivid, so the monochrome pallu looks sharp against it.

What jewellery suits bright green and black?

Gold is classic with green and makes it festive, especially antique gold jhumkas or a choker. Oxidised silver keeps it contemporary and suits the black patchwork pallu. Green glass bangles or black-stone earrings tie the two colours together.

Which events suit the Poetic Madhubani?

Festive occasions lead: bright green and graphic patchwork look great at festivals. It also suits office parties, evening dinners and brunches, and can go to the office with a black blouse.

Is the blouse fabric separate or attached?

Attached. The blouse piece comes as part of the same length of tussar, in the pallu colour. Your tailor separates it and stitches it to your size and preferred neckline, so you get a blouse that matches the pallu exactly.

Are small irregularities in the print normal?

Yes. Minor irregularities come with anything printed by hand: a block pressed a little lighter, a fine overlap at a join, a slight shift in tone. They show the saree was made by a person, and they make each piece a little different from the next.

Will the print fade over time?

With dry cleaning and shade, the print holds up well. Sunlight and moisture are what dull printed silk, so store it away from windows, air it in the shade rather than direct sun, and avoid home washing. Changing the folds also stops colour wearing along the same creases.
