  • Eco-Friendly: Modal Silk is an environmentally responsible choice, as it's made from renewable beechwood trees.

Why Choose Modal Silk?

Styling Your Modal Silk Garments
Accessorize with Elegance

  • Pair delicate jewelry with your Modal Silk Saree for a timeless look, or choose bold pieces to accentuate the saree's design for a modern twist.

  • Avoid over-accessorizing, as the saree itself is a statement piece.

Choose the Right Blouse

  • Select a blouse that complements the color and pattern of your Modal Silk Saree. From classic designs to modern cuts, the right blouse can elevate your look.

Experiment with Draping Styles

  • Modal Silk Sarees can be draped in various styles, each offering a unique aesthetic. Experiment to find the style that suits your body shape and personal taste.

Footwear Finesse

  • Complete your ensemble with footwear that matches the occasion. Traditional juttis or sandals for an authentic look, or heels for a contemporary touch.

Hair and Makeup

  • Opt for understated makeup that highlights your natural beauty. A traditional bun or a soft, flowing hairstyle adds classic elegance to your Modal Silk Saree.

Caring for Your Modal Silk
Washing Techniques

  • Dry Cleaning: For delicate fabrics or embellished pieces, professional dry cleaning is recommended.

  • Hand-Washing: Use cold water and mild detergent for sturdier fabrics. Handle garments delicately to avoid damage.

Drying Tips

  • Lay your Modal Silk garments flat to dry in the shade to prevent fading and stretching.

Fabric Care

  • Silk and Embroidery: Avoid exposing silk to direct sunlight for extended periods. Turn embroidered garments inside out before cleaning or storing to protect delicate threadwork.

  • Regularly rotate your Modal Silk garments to reduce wear and tear. Lightly steam or air out between wears to keep them fresh.
