MITTI

Earthen sand, edged in rose.

Tussar silk in sand brown, with the natural slubs that make it unmistakable. A wide pink border in tonal bands of coral, rose and magenta carries a fine temple motif and delicate gold zari lines. The pallu repeats the pink in broad zari-striped bands, ending in soft coral tassels.

An understated, earth-toned saree with a flush of colour, for those who prefer elegance without fuss.
