What is pure hand work?
The owner uses the phrase for embellishment applied by hand rather than by machine. Hand placement lets the density change across the saree, so the pallu can carry more work than the body without the pattern looking cut off, and sequins can follow a motif rather than a machine line.
How quickly can I get dressed in this?
In about a minute. A traditional saree is six metres of unstitched cloth that must be tucked, hand pleated, set and pinned. Here the pleats are already made and secured, so you step in, set the pallu over the shoulder and the drape is finished.
Can the blouse be altered?
Yes, within limits. It is stitched up to a 38 inch fit with margin left inside the seams so a tailor can let it out to 42 inch. Beyond 42 inch there is no further allowance, so check the measurement before ordering if you are close to that figure.
Is lavender suitable for a daytime event?
Yes. Lavender is a cool, soft shade that reads clearly in daylight and under neutral indoor light, so a daytime reception, an engagement or a family function suits it. Under warm yellow evening lighting a cool pastel can shift, so consider the venue lighting.
