Sherwanis in silk and velvet fabrics

Elevate your wedding or festive attire with sherwanis in silk and velvet fabrics—two luxurious options that combine style, comfort, and tradition. Whether you’re seeking a lightweight silk sherwani for a summer celebration or a plush velvet sherwani for a winter evening, you’ll find designs that blend elegance and modern tailoring to suit every occasion.

Silk vs Velvet: Which Fabric Suits Your Wedding Style?

Choosing between silk and velvet sherwanis depends on your personal style and the event’s setting. Silk offers a smooth feel and gentle sheen, perfect for daytime functions and warmer climates. Velvet delivers a rich, tactile experience, adding warmth and depth for evening receptions or winter weddings. Both fabrics support detailed embroidery and contemporary cuts, so your outfit stands out with every detail.

• Silk: Lightweight, breathable, ideal for summer or outdoor events.
• Velvet: Soft, opulent, well-suited for indoor or winter celebrations.

Picture yourself in a silk sherwani, catching the light at a garden ceremony, or in a velvet sherwani that feels regal at a grand banquet.

Seasonal Fabric Guide: Silk for Summer, Velvet for Winter

Consider the season and venue when selecting your sherwani fabric. Silk’s breathable nature keeps you cool during hot months, while velvet’s insulating qualities ensure comfort on chilly evenings. For destination weddings or multi-day events, you might want one of each for different occasions.

Step-by-Step: Ordering a Custom Sherwani Online

Ordering a custom-fit sherwani is simple and rewarding. Begin by choosing your preferred fabric and style, then submit your measurements using the online guide. You can personalise embroidery, colour, and silhouette to create a look that’s uniquely yours. Most platforms, including House of Indya, offer guidance throughout the process and free tailoring for select styles.

• Follow the sizing guide to measure your chest, shoulders, sleeve length, waist, and hips.
• Select your design details and embroidery preferences.
• Place your order and receive a sherwani tailored to your specifications.

What If My Sherwani Doesn’t Fit?

If your sherwani isn’t the perfect fit upon arrival, alteration options are available. Many retailers provide adjustment services or support for exchanges. Contact customer service for advice on minor tailoring or re-sizing, ensuring you look your best for the big day.

• Layered stoles for added elegance
• Traditional jewellery for heritage charm

Sherwani Care: Maintenance and Quick Solutions

Proper care ensures your sherwani remains flawless. Dry clean silk and velvet pieces to preserve their texture and colour. For minor stains, gently blot silk with cold water and avoid rubbing; for velvet, use a soft brush or cloth to lift the stain. Always store your sherwani in a breathable garment bag and hang velvet to prevent creasing.

• Dry clean recommended for both fabrics
• Hang velvet sherwanis to maintain shape
• Check lining and seams for lasting durability
• For urgent stains, treat immediately with gentle methods or consult a professional cleaner
