A salwar kameez with enough presence for an occasion and enough sense for a long day. Cut from crepe in a teal shade, it sits somewhere between everyday and occasion wear.

It moves between everyday wear and occasions without needing much thought. Indian sizing does not map onto US sizing consistently - go by the measurements, not the letter.

Care is the usual: dry-clean anything with zari or dense embroidery, hand-wash cottons and rayons in cold water, and dry in shade rather than direct sun.
