Ikkat Hakoba G/S

The Ikkat Hakoba blouse is a study in quiet contrast: a fine-striped ikkat-style cotton bodice meets soft ivory sleeves in Hakoba (schiffli) embroidery, joined by crisp contrast piping and a lace-trimmed V neckline. It's the kind of piece that makes a plain saree look thoughtfully put together.
