One of a kind, crafted from a reclaimed silk organza sari, this kimono combines a soft ivory base with delicate woven texture and subtle blush-pink detailing. Pale sage green borders frame the neckline, front opening and sleeves, bringing a gentle contrast to the neutral palette.
A striking deep red Banarasi panel at the back introduces a rich accent, detailed with rows of intricate gold and green motifs. Banarasi is a traditional Indian textile originating from Varanasi (formerly Banaras), renowned for its intricate weaving, rich patterns and distinctive metallic detailing. Traditionally associated with saris and occasion wear, it brings a sense of heritage and craftsmanship to the piece.
The contrast between the light, understated silk organza and the richly woven Banarasi creates a distinctive balance of softness and ornamentation while retaining an elegant, easy-to-wear feel.
Designed with straight sleeves, a long relaxed silhouette and a coordinating self-tie belt, it can be worn open as a flowing layering piece or cinched at the waist for a more defined shape.

One-of-One Craftsmanship
Every Sari for Change garment is entirely one-of-one.
Crafted from reclaimed heritage textiles, each piece carries its own history, character, and unique markings. Variations in weave, embroidery, texture, colour, and minor imperfections are part of the beauty of the regenerative process and should not be considered faults.
These characteristics are a reflection of the textile's journey and make each garment impossible to replicate.
