Is the blouse the same fabric as the saree?
No, and it is worth knowing. The saree is two tone satin silk while the blouse is stitched in malai satin, a softer satin with a gentler sheen and a smooth hand. That makes the blouse comfortable over a long evening and straightforward for a tailor to alter.
What three types of work are on this saree?
Dual sequins, which reflect at more than one level rather than giving a single uniform shine; pearl work, which glows softly rather than flashing; and hand work, which means the placement was set by hand rather than following a repeating machine path across the cloth.
How long does a ready-to-wear saree take to put on?
About a minute, against the ten to twenty minutes a traditional saree needs. The pleats are already formed and secured into the garment, so there is no tucking, hand pleating or pinning, and the fall looks the same every single time you wear it.
Can the blouse be let out?
Yes, within the stated margin. It is stitched to fit up to 38 inch with margin left inside the seams so a tailor can open it out to 42 inch. Beyond 42 inch there is no further allowance, so check your measurement before ordering.
