This one of a kind piece is crafted from a vintage silk sari, reworked to highlight the fabric’s natural elegance through a clean, modern co-ord silhouette. Smooth and softly lustrous, the silk carries a refined sheen that moves gently with the body, offering a balance of structure and fluidity that feels both timeless and effortless.
The set features a wrap-style jacket with a softly defined waist and relaxed sleeves, paired with fluid, elasticated pants designed for comfort and ease. Together, the silhouette feels calm and considered-elevated yet wearable, allowing the silk’s understated beauty to take centre stage.
Size: Medium (UK 10–12 / EU 38–40)
Fabric: Vintage silk sari in warm ivory tones, finished with subtle green borders and delicate floral accents. Smooth, fluid, and quietly luminous, the fabric drapes with natural elegance.
Styling Tip: Wear together as a refined co-ord, or style the jacket over a slip dress and the pants with a simple top for versatile, understated dressing.
Wash Care: Cold hand wash recommended to preserve the silk’s softness, sheen, and drape.

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.
Created in Johannesburg through the Sacred Economy.
