The Kahaani Top in Kali Raat

The Kahaani Top in Kali Raat

This top began as a sari. Somewhere in India, it was chosen, worn, and loved. Now it's yours. Cut and handmade in Austin into something entirely new, while carrying every thread of where it came from.

Kali Raat means the dark night. A warm one, with light scattered through it. The boteh motif — what the West calls paisley — is one of the oldest design forms in the world, and on this midnight silk it feels ancient and intimate at once. This is the piece you reach for when you want to be quietly extraordinary.

The lightweight pure silk makes it breathable and breezy. The kind of fabric that feels like nothing on a hot summer day. Wear it to Friday night dinner with wide-leg trousers and gold earrings, or to the farmer's market on Sunday morning with your favorite denim shorts. It moves the way silk moves: effortlessly.

No two are alike. The print, the pattern, the exact fall of color across the fabric is completely unique to the sari it came from. When this one is gone, it's gone.

Care Instructions: Dry clean, spot clean or hand wash/hang dry.
