Silkmark Tussar Unique Blockprint Pink & Purple Saree

What is printed on this saree?

Magenta star-shaped flowers and small sprigs are printed across a cream ground, finished with a magenta zigzag edge and a grey-blue band, next to a periwinkle section with fine stripes and magenta bands. The two colours read cool and bright together.

Which blouse suits magenta print with periwinkle stripes?

A periwinkle blouse keeps it cool. A magenta blouse picks up the flowers for a festive look. Silver jewellery suits both colours, while heavy yellow gold can fight with them.

Will I need to buy blouse fabric separately?

No. A blouse piece in the pallu colour is attached to the saree and comes unstitched, in the same tussar silk. Detach it and have it stitched to your fit. You can still choose a different blouse on some days, but the matching piece is there whenever you want it.

Where does this saree work best?

It leads as workwear, where the neat star print looks composed. For a kitty get-together or brunch it needs only a change of jewellery, and with kundan studs it is easy to wear to festive gatherings.

How should I store it?

Keep it in its own fabric bag in a dry place, separate from other sarees. Every so often, take it out, let it breathe in dry air and refold it along different lines so the fold marks don't set. Damp cupboards are best avoided, and so is long exposure to direct sunlight.
