The Eri Saree-with a conscience
A tad too late for the festive season of Diwali but bang on time for the wedding season, Deepika Govind’s new range of designer silk sarees is created from Eri-The Peace Silk.
She began with a collection of Eri stoles and shawls, and evolved a collection of evening essentials – the Eri saree.
Created with natural, completely organic dyes, in rich palettes of black with dark emerald green motifs and a bindi–red palao; copper and raw sienna with vibrant chichlid blue; a teal saree with a chartruese green palao; mauve and dark orchid with a Picasso blue palao, these Eri sarees are, as the designer says, silk that does not harm any life form.
“While my quest to find a silk that does no harm to any life form finally found an answer, a challenging task lay ahead – to turn a naturally coarse and rugged silk into a supple and soft fabric of international quality and functionality,” says Deepika Govind of her new collection. “Eri continued to intrigue me for its unusual characteristics, for one, its thermal properties (being warm in winter, cool in summer), making it one of the finest options for stoles and shawls.”
Price Range: Rs. 14,000 – Rs. 19,000
