2. A Legacy of Craftsmanship

The Designer Tissue Saree is where modern minimalism meets ancient textile reverence.

Tissue silk — derived from the finest mulberry silk filaments — has been woven in India since the Mughal courts, where empresses draped themselves in fabrics so sheer, they appeared to glow from within. The word “tissue” itself comes from the French tissu, meaning “woven” — a nod to its delicate, lace-like structure.

In Varanasi’s looms, artisans still hand-weave tissue silk using single-ply silk threads, often blending them with metallic zari to create a fabric that shimmers without weight. This saree revives that legacy — not as a replica, but as a reimagining: stripped of excess, elevated by intention.

• For stubborn stains, consult a professional textile conservator — do not scrub, bleach, or machine wash.

🌿 Pro Tip: Store with a silica gel sachet during monsoon months to prevent moisture damage and preserve the saree’s luminous drape

💬 FAQ

Q: What is a designer tissue saree?
A: A designer tissue saree is made from ultra-fine silk threads woven into a sheer, lightweight fabric with subtle metallic accents. Known for its ethereal drape and understated elegance, it’s favored for weddings, receptions, and formal events.

Q: Is tissue silk the same as georgette or chiffon?
A: No. Tissue silk is made from pure mulberry silk filaments — far finer, more luminous, and luxurious than synthetic chiffon or georgette. It’s breathable, biodegradable, and ages beautifully.

Q: Can I wear a tissue saree for my wedding?
A: Absolutely. It’s ideal for wedding receptions, mehendi, or sangeet ceremonies. Pair it with a heavily embroidered blouse for contrast — it’s the ultimate “less is more” bridal look.

Q: Why is tissue silk more expensive than other sarees?
A: Because it’s handwoven with single-ply silk threads, often blended with real zari. It takes weeks to produce one saree, and requires master weavers — making it rare, not mass-produced.

Q: Does tissue silk wrinkle easily?
A: It’s delicate, but not prone to wrinkling if handled gently. Always fold, never hang, and store in cotton. A quick steam will revive its drape.

Q: Is tissue silk eco-friendly?
A: Yes. Pure silk is natural, biodegradable, and non-synthetic. When dyed with natural pigments and handwoven, it’s one of the most sustainable luxury fabrics in Indian fashion.

4. Wash & Care Instructions

• Wash Method: Hand wash only using a mild silk shampoo or pH-neutral detergent in cold water. Do not soak for more than 8 minutes.
• Drying: Always dry in shade — never expose to direct sunlight. Tissue silk is delicate; UV rays can weaken fibers and fade metallic accents.
• Ironing: Use the lowest heat setting with a cotton cloth barrier. Steam lightly if needed — avoid pressing directly on zari or embroidery.
• Storage: Fold gently and store in a breathable cotton or muslin bag. Place dried neem leaves inside to repel moths.
    ❌ Never use plastic covers, vacuum bags, or hang for long periods — tissue silk can stretch, snag, or lose its structure.
• Stain Care: Blot spills immediately with a clean, damp cloth.
