Rohini — Crimson Red Linen-Cotton Saree with Silver Border | Awadhalaya

The red you thought you'd save for occasions.

Rohini is a deep crimson linen-cotton saree — a red that leans towards maroon, grounded by a silver border and a striped silver pallu. Easy to drape, quietly festive, and far more wearable than its colour suggests.

A fine line of silver runs along both edges. At the pallu, the silver gathers into graduated bands — broad, then fine — against the deep red, finished with hand-knotted ivory tassels.

• FABRIC & FEEL
  Linen-cotton. A crisp, dry drape with a soft natural texture — comfortable through long evenings and warm days alike. Settles and softens with every wash.
• BORDER & PALLU
  A silver-toned border runs the length of both edges. The pallu carries graduated silver bands against the crimson ground, ending in ivory tassels.
• BEST WORN FOR
  Pujo and festive evenings. Weddings you're a guest at. Dinners and gatherings. Workdays that call for a little more presence, pallu pinned.
• STYLING
  Pairs with a cream, ivory or black blouse. Oxidised silver — a heavy necklace or jhumkas. Hair pulled back. Let the colour carry the look. (The blouse shown is for styling only and is not included.)
• CARE
  Hand wash cold, separately — deep reds may bleed initially. Mild soap, no soaking. Dry in shade. No tumble dry. Iron on medium heat.
• WHY WE CHOSE THIS PRODUCT
  A good red saree is one of the few things in a wardrobe that earns its place immediately. We chose Rohini because this red is deep rather than bright — the kind that reads as considered, not costume — and because the silver keeps it from ever feeling heavy. Linen-cotton makes it something you can wear on a Tuesday, not just at a festival.
