Binny Silk Saree – Purple Lightweight Silk Saree with Paithani Pallu

Deep purple, the colour that suits everyone

Wine purple is the safest rich colour in a saree wardrobe — it flatters every skin tone, it never looks cheap under indoor lighting, and it works from a morning puja through to an evening reception. The Binny silk body here carries a soft natural sheen with tiny gold and pink buti motifs scattered across it.

A pallu worth turning around for

The pallu is where this saree spends its money. A Paithani-inspired floral panel runs across it in pink, orange, mustard and green, woven against the purple base and framed with wide gold zari. The same zari runs down both edges of the saree, so the border reads clean and finished from every angle.

Genuinely light to wear

Binny silk is a soft blended silk, and that is the entire appeal — it gives you the sheen and fall of a formal silk saree at a fraction of the weight. It pleats easily, holds the pleats through the day, and sits light on your shoulder. If heavy Kanjivarams put you off wearing silk, this is the one to try.

What you get

• 5.5 m Binny silk saree in deep wine purple with all-over buti work
• 0.8 m unstitched blouse piece in purple with a contrast pink motif design
• Gold zari border running the full length on both edges
• Paithani-style multicolour floral pallu

How to style it

Temple gold works best — a short haram or a simple gold chain, jhumkas and thin bangles, exactly as shown. Add gajra or jasmine in a low bun for functions. The blouse that comes with it is already a contrast piece, so there is no styling work left to do.

Care instructions

Dry clean only. Store folded in a muslin cloth away from direct sunlight, and refold along different lines every few months so the zari does not crease in one place. Iron on low heat on the reverse side.

Occasions

Pujas and temple visits, festive gatherings, Diwali, Navratri, family functions, receptions, office festive days and daytime weddings.
