The technique is what defines it: the metallic pattern is part of the fabric's structure, not applied to its surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe zari borders on this dupatta and the motifs on the shirt are genuinely woven, which is why we call it Banarasi-style. What it is not is silk — and rather than let that word sit unexamined on the page, we would rather say so. You are buying the weave, not the fibre.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWoven work versus printed work\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe difference shows in wear. A printed metallic pattern sits on the surface and dulls or flakes over time. A woven zari border is structural — it catches light from the thread itself, it holds its definition after years of folding, and you can feel the raised pattern with your fingers. This is the main reason a woven piece costs more than a printed one, and the main reason it lasts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFirozy blue\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFirozy is a bright, clear blue, named after turquoise — vivid rather than deep navy or soft powder blue. Against gold zari it reads particularly well; the warmth of the metallic thread and the coolness of the blue set each other off. You may also see the shade spelled firozi, ferozi, feroza or firoza.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere to wear it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a proper occasion suit. Woven zari catches light, which makes it a strong evening piece — a wedding function, a sangeet, a reception, a Diwali or Karva Chauth evening, an engagement. It is dressy enough that it needs little help from jewellery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eStitching this suit\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe suit is supplied unstitched, so the neckline, sleeve length and fit are yours to decide. It can be stitched up to size 5XL. With woven borders and placed motifs, decide with your tailor before cutting where you want the border to fall and how the shirt motifs should sit — the pattern is fixed in the fabric, so the cut determines everything. StudioJazz offers a stitching service; share what you have in mind and we will discuss it with you. Unstitched orders are dispatched within 48 working hours; stitched orders take 7 to 15 working days depending on the work involved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDry clean only. Zari is metallic thread and tarnishes with moisture and perfume — let perfume dry fully before dressing, store the suit in a cloth bag rather than plastic, and never iron directly over the zari or the embroidery. Fold along different lines each time you store it; repeated folding in the same place wears a zari border faster than wearing it does.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eShipping\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDispatched within 48 working hours of order confirmation and delivered across India in 3 to 7 business days. Free shipping on orders above Rs. 1,500 — this set qualifies. StudioJazz has shipped to 13 countries; international shipping is available on request.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA note on colour\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNatural variation in colour, weave and embroidery placement is characteristic of this kind of fabric and is not a defect. Zari catches light differently depending on the angle, so the suit will photograph differently from how it looks in hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eIs this pure Banarasi silk?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. This is a Banarasi-style suit — the zari borders and motifs are genuinely woven in the Banarasi manner, but we do not make a silk claim on this piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat makes something Banarasi?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBanarasi refers to the brocade weaving tradition of Varanasi, where zari threads are woven into the cloth on the loom rather than printed or stitched onto it afterwards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eAre the zari borders woven or printed?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWoven. The metallic pattern is part of the fabric's structure, which is why it holds its definition and catches light the way a printed pattern cannot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat work is on the shirt?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEmbroidery together with woven motifs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat colour is firozy?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA bright, clear blue named after turquoise — vivid rather than navy or powder blue. Also spelled firozi, ferozi, feroza or firoza.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat's included and how much fabric?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree pieces of 2.5 metres each — shirt, bottom and dupatta — 7.5 metres in total.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eIs this a daytime or evening suit?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvening, mainly. Woven zari catches light, so it has more impact under lamps than in flat daylight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhere will the border fall on my stitched suit?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat depends on how it is cut. The pattern is fixed in the fabric, so agree the placement with your tailor before cutting begins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eCan this be stitched to my size?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt can be stitched up to size 5XL, and the neckline, sleeve length and fit are yours to choose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eDo you stitch it, and what does that cost?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, StudioJazz offers stitching. Charges depend on the design and the amount of work involved — message us and we will confirm the cost before you proceed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eHow do I stop the zari tarnishing?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLet perfume and deodorant dry fully before dressing, store in a cloth bag rather than plastic, and avoid folding along the same line every time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eDo you ship internationally?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStudioJazz has shipped to 13 countries.
