TUSSAR SILK TEPRG01

Lakshmi showcases a collection of eco-printed, handwoven saris by Vriksh, in Odisha. Eco-printing is an unique, natural-dye art form from Australia, where a variety of leaves, flowers, and twigs are used for contact printing on fabrics, drawing pigments from the same plants to create interesting, and often surprising natural prints. This stunning, soapstone pink, Tussar sari is printed with a pattern of layered prints, made up of an array of leaf silhouettes, set against a watercolour-like background. The lovely pink-beige palette of the sari consisting of blush, smoky pink,  pepper berry pink, ash grey, taupe, and  peat brown is enhanced by gold, printed, leaves in the foreground. This sari is accompanied by an eco-dyed, stone beige blouse in tussar, to match.
