As the weather cools, the fabric you choose matters as much as the design. Here is a simple guide to the fabrics you will see most this season, and when to wear each one.
Raw Silk
Raw silk has a rich, slightly textured finish and holds embroidery beautifully. It photographs well under evening light, which makes it a favourite for formal dinners and functions. Pieces like Lunaris and Aurelia show how elegant it can look.
Karandi
Karandi is a textured, slightly coarse weave that keeps you warm without feeling heavy. It is ideal for daywear and semi-formal looks. See it in Eclipse.
Velvet
Nothing says winter like velvet. Its depth of colour and soft sheen make embroidered velvet perfect for evening events.
Linen
Linen is breathable yet structured, so it works for the in-between days when it is cool in the morning and warm by the afternoon. Try Moonlit or Coral Bloom.
Chiffon
Chiffon is light and flowing, usually used for dupattas and sequin pieces. For winter, layer it with a shawl or pair it with a heavier trouser.
