Material: Georgette Silk

A member of the pure silk family, georgette is a variant of pure crepe silk. The translucent nature of the fabric makes it well-suited for an evening out or a spring day. Georgette has a gauzy feel and comes in different grammages which contribute to the elegant fall of the fabric. This pure fabric has an excellent ability to absorb colour, offering numerous colour permutations to the designer. The saree features delicate Hand block printing and Cut Work blouse. The body features Beige and Black detailing with striking contrast brought by Red piping detailing.

One of the earliest and simplest methods of textile printing, Block printing is very simply put, the printing of patterns on textile using incised wooden blocks. Block printing involves myriad steps, but the most important step is the preparation of the block which determines the quality and clarity of impressions. The block is then dipped in the desired dye and carefully placed adjacent to the preceding impression of the block as per the design. Sakhi gives a contemporary twist to block print by combining geometric designs with traditional Indian motifs. The multiple stages involved in this hand craft makes the fabric soft making it fall beautifully.
