Sanya Malhotra’s Banarasi Brocade Dress Crafted from Deadstock and Recycled Saris

When she’s not hitting the gym, Sanya Malhotra loves experimenting with her wardrobe, exploring new silhouettes and fabrics. Following the success of her recent release, Mrs., the actor embraced a feminine milkmaid dress from Tiger and Twig, a brand known for its transparent design practices. Instead of the usual linen or cotton, the peasant-style dress featured Banarasi brocade, traditionally used for saris and pantsuits. The dress was created using old saris, showcasing the intricate gold and silver zari weave that characterizes this luxurious textile, offering a unique blend of sustainability and craftsmanship.
