RAUNAK

A garden nobody warned you about.

The flowers on this silver shimmer saree are not delicate — they arrive in deep magenta, burgundy, violet, and rose, sprawling across the gunmetal metallic ground the way flowers do when no one is tending to them. The black scalloped bead and sequin embroidered border frames it all at the hem and pallu, and the ready-made embroidered blouse, dense with black beadwork, completes what the saree begins.

This is romantic in the way that has nothing to do with soft.

The blouse is ready — wear it as it arrives. The silver ground takes jewellery in every direction: oxidised silver for a dark romantic finish, diamonds or crystal for sharp evening glamour. Hair up shows the neckline and the blouse embroidery; hair down lets the saree be the whole story. A dark berry lip. A small evening bag. Nothing else is needed.

Dry clean only — no hand washing or machine washing. The metallic shimmer, floral print, and embroidered border all require professional care.

• Store flat, wrapped in acid-free tissue or soft muslin. Do not hang — the weight of the fabric and embroidery can distort the drape over time.
• Keep away from moisture, humidity, and direct sunlight to protect the metallic finish and bead work.
• The embroidered blouse should be dry cleaned separately and stored with care to preserve the sequin and bead work.
• Avoid contact with sharp jewellery edges or rough surfaces that could snag the shimmer fabric or embroidery.
• Do not iron directly on the shimmer side. If steaming is required, use a steamer held at a distance on the reverse side only.
