The royal fabric from Dhaka was the legendary Dhakai Muslin, known as "woven air" for its ethereal lightness, once made from rare cotton in Bengal (Bangladesh) and worn by Mughal emperors, queens, and global elites.

For one of a kind, authentic sari pieces please note these comes from many different sources and are found objects. To avoid any color transfer use extremely cold water for a quick hand wash, do not let the garment sit for time. Rinse it repeatedly with quick movements is best. To soften your garment use softener with water and do 3-4 quick rinses to eliminate starch. These voile saris are often worn with starch and thus it is in the fabric and will slowly wash out and get incredibly soft.
