Zanira

Crafted from richly textured Banarasi silk sari, this kimono carries a sense of ceremony and strength. The fabric is thicker and more structured than traditional silk, giving it a sculptural, outerwear feel while still allowing fluid movement. A vivid rose-pink base is illuminated with gold embroidery, woven into the silk itself so it shimmers softly as it catches the light.

Banarasi silk originates from Varanasi, India, and is celebrated for its intricate weaving techniques and opulent metallic threads. Traditionally reserved for heirloom saris and ceremonial dress, it is prized for its durability, weight, and timeless grandeur-qualities that give this piece its unmistakable presence.

The silhouette remains relaxed yet commanding, with wide sleeves and a long, flowing cut. A matching silk belt allows the kimono to be worn open as a statement layer or tied at the waist for a more defined, architectural shape. Bold, elegant, and enduring, this is a piece designed to be worn as art.
