Chanderi Suits

Chanderi fabric, from Chanderi in Madhya Pradesh, is known for its fine weave and subtle shine. As a suit, it makes a graceful festive outfit that stays comfortable through long functions.

Hand block prints add an artisanal touch to the light fabric, so the suit feels special without being heavy.

Why Chanderi suits

Chanderi is light and breathable with a natural lustre. It holds embroidery, lace and gota trims well, so your tailor can add festive details.

How to care for your suit

• Dry clean the first time.
• After that, hand wash gently in cold water with a mild detergent.
• Do not wring or soak; press out the water.
• Dry flat in the shade and iron on low heat from the reverse side.
• Store folded in a cotton or muslin cloth and refold now and then.

Small variations in colour and alignment are natural in hand block printing. They show the piece was made by hand, and no two are exactly the same.
