Multicolour Pure Satin Silk Ready-to-Wear Saree, Abstract Print

Product details

Made in pure satin silk with an abstract digital print, this ready-to-wear drape saree carries sticky work as its surface finish. The blouse is stitched in velvet, made up to 38 inch with margin up to 42 inch. The colour is recorded as multicolour and the pleats arrive already formed. A digital print puts the design onto the cloth by printing rather than by weaving or embroidering it, which is what allows an abstract pattern with many colours to appear on a satin ground at this price. It also keeps the saree light, because nothing is added to the surface weight except the finishing work. Pure satin silk has a smooth, high-sheen face and enough weight to fall in a clean line. On a printed ground that sheen is what makes the colours read as deep rather than washed out. Sticky work refers to embellishment fixed onto the surface of the cloth rather than stitched through it, so it adds sparkle without adding stitch weight. The velvet blouse is a deliberate contrast: velvet is dense, warm and matte against the light-reflecting satin, which gives the outfit two different surfaces instead of one. Wearing it takes about a minute, since there is no tucking, hand pleating or pinning; you step in and set the pallu. Good for a function or for travel, where a saree that needs no draping is a genuine advantage. Dispatch is next day after stock confirmation.
