The pallu ends in a row of mustard tassels on twisted black cords. It is 5.8 metres long, including a plain brown running blouse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFabric and weave\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis saree is \u003cstrong\u003epowerloom-woven cotton\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEthnic Vastrr sells both handloom and powerloom pieces, and we don't blur the line between the two. A powerloom saree is woven on a mechanised loom rather than by hand. This one is a genuinely good everyday cotton saree, with a soft, slubby texture that sits well on the body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bronze zari stripes are woven into the cloth at even intervals, so the shimmer stays quiet in daylight and catches a little more under evening light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat's included\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne saree, 5.8 metres long and 1.18 metres wide, including a plain brown running blouse\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree size — the saree fits all body types\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho this saree is for\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBrown is one of the easiest colours to wear well. It suits office days and long working hours, and the bronze stripe gives it enough warmth for a puja, a sabha evening or a small family function. Cotton breathes, which makes it comfortable through South Indian heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to style it\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA plain saree wants a blouse that adds something. Pick up the mustard of the tassels in a mustard or turmeric-yellow blouse, or go for a printed Ajrakh or ikat blouse and let the print take centre stage. A soft pastel blouse is the quieter route.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor jewellery, antique gold or big handmade pieces sit naturally with the bronze. One statement piece is enough.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare instructions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHand wash or machine wash in cold to lukewarm water with a mild detergent. No bleach or harsh chemicals. Wash darks and lights separately. Do not wring or twist. Line dry in shade; direct sun fades cotton faster. Warm iron only, as excess heat damages the fabric and the zari. Store in a dry place wrapped in white cotton cloth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCotton may shrink slightly on the first wash. Small knots in the yarn are natural to cotton and are not a defect. Cared for this way, the saree will stay with you for years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSee it before you buy it\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can ask us for a video call before you place the order.

It is not handloom. We sell both at Ethnic Vastrr and we label each piece honestly, so you always know which one you are buying.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs this a khadi saree?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. This fabric is sold in the trade under the name \"khadi cotton\", and that is how it reached us, but genuine khadi is cloth that has been hand-spun and hand-woven. This saree is powerloom-woven cotton with a slubby, textured surface that resembles khadi. We would rather tell you that than let the word do work it hasn't earned.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is this saree made of?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCotton, with bronze zari stripes woven into the body. It is lightweight and breathable, and it gets softer with every wash.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the bronze zari real gold or copper?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe stripes are bronze-toned zari woven into the cloth. We hold no metal certification for the thread, so we do not describe it as pure or real zari.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes it come with a blouse piece?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. It comes with a plain brown running blouse, included within the 5.8-metre length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow long and wide is the saree?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e5.8 metres long, including the running blouse, and 1.18 metres wide. It is free size and suits all body types.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWill this saree shrink after washing?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCotton may shrink slightly on the first wash. Wash in cold to lukewarm water and line dry in shade to keep shrinkage to a minimum.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs this saree suitable for office and daily wear?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Cotton breathes well through a long day, and brown is easy to wear to work. The bronze stripe also makes it suitable for pujas, sabha evenings and small family functions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat blouse colour goes with a dark brown saree?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMustard or turmeric yellow picks up the tassels. A printed Ajrakh or ikat blouse adds contrast. A soft pastel keeps the look quiet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat are your shipping, return and exchange terms?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFree shipping on prepaid orders within India, and Cash on Delivery across India with a ₹150 cash-handling charge. Dispatch is usually within 1 working day; delivery takes 2–3 days to metro cities and 5–7 days elsewhere. Returns within 5 days of receipt, with an unedited parcel-opening video.
