It is part of our Rozana collection — the everyday range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat you receive\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShirt\u003c\/strong\u003e — cotton, 2.5 m\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBottom\u003c\/strong\u003e — cotton, 2.5 m\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDupatta\u003c\/strong\u003e — cotton, 2.5 m\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-piece unstitched set, 7.5 metres in total\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat Ajrakh is, and what this suit is\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAjrakh is a resist block-printing tradition from Kutch in Gujarat and Sindh across the border, practised for centuries by the Khatri community. The cloth passes through many stages of washing, resist-printing with mud and gum, and dyeing, with the pattern built up layer by layer rather than applied in one pass. The geometry is unmistakable — dense, symmetrical, built from repeating jaali and star forms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis suit carries an \u003cstrong\u003eAjrakh-style print\u003c\/strong\u003e. It uses that visual language but it is not hand block printed in Kutch with natural dyes, and we are not going to imply that it is. Genuine Ajrakh costs many times this.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy maroon is the right colour for it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTraditional Ajrakh is built on two dyes: indigo for blue and madder root for red. Almost every authentic piece is some combination of those, which is why deep red and deep blue are the colours the pattern was designed around.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMaroon sits squarely in that madder family. The geometry reads as it was meant to — dark, dense, warm — rather than being transplanted onto a colour the tradition never used. If you like the look of Ajrakh, this is closer to how you would actually see it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA serious print on an everyday suit\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAjrakh normally turns up on a considered piece — a stole, a saree, something bought as a small investment. Here it is on a hand-washable cotton suit at everyday prices.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThat combination is the point. You get a pattern with real depth to look at, on a suit you can wear to the office on a Wednesday and wash at home afterwards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eNo lining needed\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll three pieces are cotton, and the fabric is opaque enough to be stitched without a lining. That saves you buying extra fabric and paying your tailor to attach it, and it keeps a layer of heat off you in summer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHand washable at home\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis suit does not need dry cleaning. Hand wash it in cold water with a mild detergent, and dry it in shade rather than direct sun. Wash separately the first time — a deep maroon can release a little dye on the first wash.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere it fits in your week\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn office day, errands, a school run, a family lunch, a Gurudwara Sahib visit, a kitty party, an ordinary afternoon. Maroon is deep enough to carry a daytime function too without looking like a festive suit worn out of season. Stitch the shirt as a straight-cut with palazzo for the easiest everyday shape, or as an A-line with churidar if you prefer something more traditional.\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. Ajrakh geometry is a strong repeating pattern, so a simpler cut usually works better — heavy panelling interrupts the grid. StudioJazz offers a stitching service; share what you have in mind and we will discuss it with you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHand wash only, in cold water with a mild detergent. Dry in shade rather than direct sunlight — sunlight is harder on a printed cotton than washing is, and a deep colour shows fading more visibly than a muted one. Wash separately the first time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDispatch and delivery\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnstitched orders are dispatched within 48 working hours of order confirmation. Orders placed on a Sunday or a public holiday are processed the next working day. Once dispatched, delivery across India takes 3 to 7 business days depending on your location.

For prepaid orders below Rs. 3,000, shipping is calculated at checkout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCash on Delivery is available on orders up to Rs. 6,000, with a flat Rs. 150 shipping charge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eStudioJazz has shipped to 13 countries; international shipping is available on request.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA note on colour and print\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNatural variation in colour and print placement is characteristic of cotton and is not a defect. Print placement on your piece may differ slightly from the photographs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat is Ajrakh?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAjrakh is a resist block-printing tradition from Kutch in Gujarat and from Sindh, built up over many stages of resist-printing and dyeing. Its geometry is dense, symmetrical and highly distinctive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eIs this genuine hand block Ajrakh?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. This is an Ajrakh-style print — it uses the visual language of the tradition but is not hand block printed in Kutch with natural dyes. Genuine Ajrakh costs many times this.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy maroon?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTraditional Ajrakh is built on indigo and madder root, so deep red and deep blue are the colours the pattern was designed around. Maroon sits in that madder family, which is why the geometry reads as it was meant to.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eDoes this suit need a lining?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. All three pieces are cotton and the fabric is opaque enough to stitch without one — saving you the lining fabric and the tailoring to attach it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eCan I wash this at home?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Hand wash in cold water with a mild detergent and dry in shade. This suit does not need dry cleaning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat fabric is it?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCotton — shirt, bottom and dupatta.\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 suitable for summer?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. It is cotton, it needs no lining, and it carries no heavy surface work — three things that keep a suit cool through a long day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWill the maroon bleed or fade?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWash separately the first time, as a deep colour can release a little dye initially. Dry in shade rather than direct sunlight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat cut suits an Ajrakh print?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA simpler cut generally works better. Heavy panelling interrupts the grid of the pattern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eIs this a festive suit or an everyday one?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEveryday — part of our Rozana collection. Maroon is deep enough to carry a daytime function too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhen will my order be dispatched?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWithin 48 working hours of order confirmation. Orders placed on a Sunday or a public holiday are processed the next working day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eHow long will delivery take?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e3 to 7 business days across India once dispatched. So an unstitched order placed today typically reaches you within about a week.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eIs shipping free?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFree shipping applies to prepaid orders of Rs. 3,000 and above. Below that, shipping is calculated at checkout. Cash on Delivery orders carry a flat Rs. 150 charge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eDo you offer Cash on Delivery?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, on orders up to Rs. 6,000 in value.
