Crafted from a reclaimed chiffon sari, this piece showcases a rich emerald green base adorned with shimmering gold polka-dot motifs throughout. The semi-sheer fabric lends a light, ethereal quality, while the statement border features intricate paisley-inspired detailing in gold, sage, and warm earth tones. The contrast between the vibrant green backdrop and metallic accents evokes a sense of understated luxury, drawing inspiration from traditional Indian craftsmanship while remaining distinctly contemporary.
Styling Tip: Pair with tailored trousers, denim, or a sleek slip dress to allow the vibrant colour and delicate detailing to shine. The jewel-toned palette makes this piece ideal for festive gatherings, evening dinners, destination travel, or elevating everyday looks with a touch of glamour.
Wash Care: Dry clean recommended to preserve the delicate chiffon fabric, metallic detailing, and intricate border design. With proper care, this Lulu Jacket will remain a treasured piece in your wardrobe for years to come.

One-of-One Craftsmanship
Every Sari for Change garment is entirely one-of-one.
Crafted from reclaimed heritage textiles, each piece carries its own history, character, and unique markings. Variations in weave, embroidery, texture, colour, and minor imperfections are part of the beauty of the regenerative process and should not be considered faults.
These characteristics are a reflection of the textile's journey and make each garment impossible to replicate.
