Cornflower Blue Crepe Pleated Lehenga Set — Hand-Embroidered Blouse with Organza Dupatta

Cornflower blue crepe, pleated fine and falling long — a quiet, fluid silhouette that moves as one column rather than a flare.

The blouse is where the hand shows. A botanical spray climbs the yoke in zardozi and sequin — stems, five-petal blooms, a butterfly worked in gold and red — with one flower built up dimensionally in ivory and coral, and small points of mustard through the rest. The neckline is round, the cut sleeveless with a soft extended shoulder. The dupatta comes in viscose organza, scattered with gold sequin butis and finished in a fine lace edge, long enough to drape across the body or fall loose from the shoulder.

Made for cocktail evenings and sangeet nights, for engagement parties and receptions, and for the celebrations that call for something other than red or gold.
