Regal Katan Silk Suit — Timeless Elegance Collection

Styling Tips

• For festive or wedding occasions: pair with gold or kundan jewellery to echo the zari/embellishment in the suit. Statement jhumkas, a maang tikka or a choker would enhance the look.
• For evening wear: choose darker or jewel tones of the suit, pair with high heels or embellished sandals, a clutch with metallic accents, and opt for bold lip colour or smokey eyes for added drama.
• For more formal or semi‑formal events: keep the look balanced—solid, muted bottoms (if part of the set), maybe a plain contrast dupatta so that the heavily woven or zari portion remains focal.
• Accessorize with something subtle: a sleek belt at the waist can define silhouette; minimal bangles or bracelets to avoid overwhelming rich fabric.
• Hair & makeup: for heavy work suits, go with a neat bun or soft waves; makeup can lean either bright (festive) or soft (daytime) depending on time of day and occasion.

Wash & Care Instructions

Based on best practices for Katan silk.

1. Dry Clean Recommended
2. Especially for heavy zari, brocade work or when first cleaning. Dry‑cleaning helps protect the weave, embellishments and preserves sheen.
3. Hand Wash with Care (if needed)

• Use cold or lukewarm water and a mild detergent formulated for silk.
• Do not scrub or rub harshly; no twisting or wringing. Gently swirl and rinse.

1. Rinse & Use Final Vinegar Rinse (Optional)
2. Rinse thoroughly; a splash of white vinegar in the final rinse helps restore sheen and remove detergent residue.
3. Drying

• Press out excess water by gently rolling in a soft towel; avoid hanging wet (which can stretch or distort).
• Dry in shade; avoid direct sunlight which can fade colours and damage silk fibers.

1. Ironing / Steaming

• Iron on the reverse side, use a low heat silk‑setting if your iron has one. Place a cloth between iron and fabric, especially over zari or embellishments.
• Alternatively, steam lightly to remove wrinkles without pressing too hard against the surface.

1. Storage

• Fold neatly; avoid hanging heavy silk suits for long periods, as gravity may distort shape.
• Wrap in breathable fabric (cotton/muslin) rather than plastic to allow air circulation. Use natural moth repellents (e.g. cedar) but keep them separate from direct contact with silk.

1. Avoid Direct Contact with Perfume / Deodorants
2. Sprays can stain or degrade silk and metal zari; apply them before wearing and allow them to dry fully.
