Design Details
A rani-pink Maheshwari silk kurta with gold zari detailing framing the V-neck and banding the sleeves, paired with a contrast kalamkari-style printed dupatta in grey and teal, alive with florals and birds and bordered in broad gold zari. Matching pink trousers complete it. The saturated pink against the muted printed dupatta is a confident, celebratory combination, and Maheshwari silk keeps the drape light enough to wear through a long function.

My Story
Maheshwari weaving was founded in the 1760s by Rani Ahilyabai Holkar, who summoned weavers to her fort town on the banks of the Narmada and asked them to create a fabric worthy of gifts for visiting royalty. The patterns they drew came from the fort itself - the temple spires, the leaf and diamond carvings on its walls, the wave of the river below - and the reversible borders they perfected mean the cloth reads beautifully from either side. Woven from a silk warp and cotton weft, it carries the sheen of silk at a fraction of its weight, which is precisely why it drapes the way it does.
Wash and Care
Dry clean only for the first wash. After that, hand wash separately in cold water with a mild detergent, never wring the fabric, and dry flat in the shade. Press on a low heat with a cloth between the iron and any zari or embroidery.
