Add a dash of edgy to your traditional outfits this Puja

This versatile linen-and-cotton saree deserves a place in your festive haul

The pandemic may have thrown a spanner in the works of full-fledged Durga Puja celebrations, but it need not interfere with October’s mandatory saree shopping. 

Khwabeedah’s Shuddhi Saree tops the list of must-buys this festive season with its multi-coloured polka dots that add an edgy twist to the traditional Bengali shaada laal paar. The linen-and-cotton garment is soft, breathable and can be draped in a variety of ways.

This home-grown brand is run by Lopamudra Piu Chatterjee, who hails from Calcutta. In keeping with the ethos of the brand, this saree has been sourced ethically and sustainably from Bengal’s weavers, many of whom suffered greatly during the lockdown. With puja festivities about to commence, now is the time to add this fast-selling piece – perfect for an Ashtami evening – to your wardrobe.
