About soft silk
Soft silk is a lightweight pure silk with a fluid, easy drape. Its zari is lighter than traditional Kanjivaram, which makes it easier to wear for long hours. Being handloom, small irregularities in the weave are a natural sign of handwork, not a defect.
Care
Dry clean only. Store the saree wrapped in a soft cotton or muslin cloth, away from moisture. Refold it every few months so the zari does not crack along the folds. Do not spray perfume directly on silk or zari, and iron on low heat with a cloth in between.
