Soft pom poms, round mirrors ringed in pink, turquoise, yellow and white thread, and little geometric motifs stitched in between. A thick row of purple tassels finishes the pallu.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe purple keeps it grounded. The pom poms and mirrors keep it light-hearted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is handmade here, and what is not.\u003c\/strong\u003e The mul cotton is handloom. The motifs and the mirror work are machine embroidery, not hand embroidery. I would rather you know that before you choose it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFabric and details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandloom mul cotton, soft, light and breathable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMachine embroidery: small geometric motifs and mirror work in pink, turquoise, yellow and white\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePink and white pom poms scattered across the drape\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTonal purple tassels along the pallu edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength: 5.4 metres\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWidth: 1.18 metres\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWithout blouse piece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree size\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in India, sourced directly from artisans\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to style it\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLet the blouse borrow one of the thread colours. Hot pink or turquoise draws out the mirror rings. Mustard yellow warms the purple. If you want it softer, a white or pastel blouse lets the pom poms do the talking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeep the jewellery to one piece. Oxidised silver jhumkas, or a single silver neckpiece, sit well beside the mirrors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is well-suited to Navratri and Golu visits, Deepavali gatherings, mehendi and haldi functions, and college festivals. Cotton is a sensible choice around lamps, and mul cotton stays easy to wear through a long evening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI recommend dry cleaning. It keeps the mirror work and pom poms at their best for longer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo wash at home: cold water, a mild detergent and a gentle hand. No brush, no wringing or twisting. Line dry in the shade. Iron warm on the reverse, and go around the mirrors and pom poms rather than over them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWash it on its own for the first few washes. I only promise what I have checked, and colourfastness can vary batch to batch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSee it on video before you buy\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou cannot feel mul cotton or catch the glint of mirror work through a screen. Message me on WhatsApp at 7353931190 and we will set up a video call. I will show you this exact saree, the fabric, the mirrors and the pom poms, up close.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs this purple saree handloom or powerloom?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe mul cotton fabric is handloom. The embroidery and mirror work added on top of it are done by machine. Both are true of the same saree, and I would rather you know both.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the mirror work done by hand?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The mirror work and the small coloured motifs are machine embroidery. The stitching is neat and even, and I do not describe machine work as handwork.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow long and how wide is this saree?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis saree is 5.4 metres long and 1.18 metres wide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes it come with a blouse piece?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. This saree comes without a blouse piece, so you will need to arrange blouse fabric separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is mul cotton like to wear?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMul cotton, also called mulmul, is a fine, soft, lightweight cotton. It breathes well in warm South Indian weather and stays comfortable through a long day or a long evening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat colour blouse goes with a purple pom pom saree?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePick up one of the thread colours. A hot pink or turquoise blouse brings out the mirror rings, and a mustard yellow blouse warms the purple. For a softer look, a white or pastel blouse lets the pom poms lead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I wear this saree for Navratri, Golu or Deepavali?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The pom poms and mirror work suit festive visits, Golu evenings and Deepavali gatherings. Cotton is also a sensible fabric to wear around lamps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs it a good choice for a mehendi or haldi function?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The playful pom poms and multicolour mirror work are well-suited to mehendi and haldi functions, where something light and cheerful works better than heavy silk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I wash this saree at home?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDry cleaning is recommended. If you wash it at home, use cold water and a mild detergent, handle it gently, never use a brush, and do not wring or twist it. Line dry in the shade and iron warm on the reverse, going around the mirrors and pom poms rather than over them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWill the purple colour bleed when washed?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI cannot promise it will not, because colourfastness can vary from batch to batch. Wash it on its own for the first few washes, in cold water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I see this saree on a video call before I order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Message me on WhatsApp at 7353931190 and we will set up a video call. I will show you this exact saree, the fabric, the mirror work and the pom poms up close.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat are the shipping, COD and return terms?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShipping is free on all prepaid orders within India.
