How does embroidery show on an all-black saree?
Through relief rather than colour. A black ground gives back no contrast, so the design is read entirely by how the raised stitching catches light on its high points and holds shadow at its edges. Hand embroidery suits black particularly well for that reason.
What does a 42 inch margin give me?
The blouse is stitched to a 38 inch fit, and the margin is extra fabric left inside the seams. A tailor can open those seams and let the blouse out as far as 42 inches, giving four inches of adjustment. Beyond that there is no material left.
Is a tissue blouse fragile?
Tissue is woven fine and light, so it is less robust than a satin or a cotton blouse and can snag more easily. It is chosen for its shimmer, which reads differently against a matte two-tone drape. Dry clean only is the care instruction recorded here.
Is this the same as the wine and black saree in the range?
They are closely related. Both are two tone satin silk ready-to-wear sarees with khatli handwork and a stitched black tissue blouse. The difference recorded in the data is the saree colour: one is wine and black, this one is black throughout.
