Janmashtami Ethnic Wear: Embracing Tradition with a Trendy Twist
Janmashtami, the celebration of Lord Krishna’s birth, inspires a palette rich in hues of royal blue, vibrant yellow, and peacock green colors deeply connected to Krishna’s legend. Dressing in traditional Indian attire like silk sarees, lehenga cholis, and embroidered salwar suits is customary, but the contemporary woman also loves mixing these classics with trendy elements.
The Mor Pankh Saree: A Festival Showstopper
Our exclusive Mor Pankh saree, available only at The Weavers Shop by Raavi, is a masterpiece inspired by the peacock feather Krishna’s eternal symbol of grace and beauty. Crafted from pure silk fabric, it features exquisite handwoven embroidery in shades of sapphire blue and emerald green, accented by intricate zari work that catches the light beautifully.
Styling Tip: Pair this saree with oxidized silver jewellery and a delicate floral gajra for an authentic Janmashtami look. The lightweight silk ensures comfort during temple visits and festive dances.
Mor Pankh Suit Set: Tradition Meets Modernity
For those preferring suits, the Mor Pankh suit set offers a stunning alternative.
