Where to Wear It

Onion pink is a celebration colour without being a bridal red, which is why it works so well for the ceremonies around a wedding rather than the wedding itself. It photographs softly under indoor lighting for a Nichayathartham, carries the festive warmth a Valaikappu or Seemantham calls for, and the gold zari lifts it enough for a reception evening.

Styling

Pair it with statement earrings and you are ready for the occasion. Gold-toned jewellery picks up the gold zari running through the weave, and a contrast green or deep maroon blouse brings out the meena work in the motifs.

Care

Dry clean recommended for the first few washes. Machine wash is not recommended.

Note: Slight colour variation is expected due to camera settings and lighting.
