About this collection
Banarasi silk has always been the one you save for the big days. You don't pick it up on a whim; you pick it for a wedding, a puja, something worth dressing up for.
If you're after a Banarasi Pure Silk Saree for Wedding Function wear, this is where to start. Each piece here is handwoven in Varanasi on pit looms, the same way it's been done for generations. Whether it's the sangeet, the reception, or the pheras themselves, the zari work and the weight of the silk do most of the talking, so you don't need to over-accessorize.
If a full saree isn't what you're after, our Pure Banarasi Silk Dupatta for Diwali gets you there faster. Drape it over a plain kurta or suit, and you've made an ordinary outfit look festive without shopping for a whole new one.
Everything in this collection is handloom, GI-tagged where applicable, and comes straight from Varanasi.

Common Questions
Can I wear a Banarasi silk saree to a wedding function?
Yes, it's one of the most common choices for weddings and receptions in India. The zari brocade is exactly what makes it feel occasion-appropriate rather than everyday wear.
Is a Banarasi silk dupatta a good pick for Diwali?
It is. Pair it with a kurta or a plain suit, and it does most of the festive work on its own; no need to buy a whole new outfit.
How should I take care of a handloom Banarasi piece?
Stick to dry cleaning. It protects the zari and keeps the silk from losing its shine over repeated wear.
