Raktima - Bandhani Banarasi Cotton Shirt

Deep, elegant, and timeless, Raktima celebrates festive dressing through rich colour and handcrafted detail. Made from soft self-woven Banarasi touch cotton, this relaxed-fit shirt brings together the heritage of Bandhani with the subtle richness of woven Banarasi-inspired floral motifs, making it a versatile piece for celebrations both grand and intimate.

Crafted in a refined palette of Wine Maroon, Rust & Deep Emerald Green, the shirt is beautifully highlighted with antique gold self-woven floral motifs and delicate white hand-tied Bandhani dots. The signature V-shaped Bandhani composition gracefully transitions from rich wine maroon into warm rust before settling into a deep emerald green base, creating a striking festive contrast. The back remains beautifully understated in solid Wine Maroon, allowing the woven floral motifs to shine with quiet elegance.

Designed with a soft mandarin collar, a front button placket, three-quarter sleeves, contrast Deep Emerald Green cuffs, short side slits, and a relaxed silhouette, Raktima is made for effortless festive dressing that feels as comfortable as it looks refined.
