Small woven butti motifs with a lurex thread give this slub silk suit fabric its sparkle - the kind of quiet shimmer that appears as you move rather than sitting flat on the surface. Butti designs are a classic in Indian festive wear because they are delicate at arm's length and striking across a full length of fabric.The palette runs through beige, black, pista green, yellow, purple and wine, so you can choose an understated tone for daytime events or a deep shade for evenings. Slub silk's fine texture underneath keeps the metallic butti from feeling overly bright, adding a soft handwoven feel.Sold unstitched, the fabric allows a straight kurta, a suit with a contrast salwar, or a festive jacket set. It presses well and holds pleats neatly. A plain or lightly bordered dupatta lets the butti work take the attention.
