Yellow Tussar Silk Readymade Pant Style Suit with Patola Dupatta

Product details

Yellow is the colour recorded for this readymade pant style suit, which has its top and bottom in tussar silk and a dupatta in fancy fabric carrying a patola print. Three pieces are listed together. The owner describes it for party wear and daily wear, and it needs no tailoring before it is worn. Yellow on tussar silk behaves differently from yellow on a smooth fabric. Tussar has a slubbed, uneven surface with a matte sheen, so the colour breaks up slightly across the weave instead of sitting as one flat block. That is why a yellow tussar suit looks warm rather than harsh under indoor light. The pant style bottom gives the suit its line. Cut as a trouser rather than a gathered salwar, it runs straight from the waist to the ankle, which reads as cleaner in photographs and is easier to move in through a long function. On the dupatta, the patola print reproduces the mirrored geometric motifs of the Gujarati patola weaving tradition as a printed pattern, keeping the piece light while giving it a recognisable design language. Yellow suits daytime functions, a haldi, a puja or an office day, where the colour reads as intended in natural light. A slight colour variation may occur because of lighting, camera flash and screen settings.
