Have fun with our soft drapes and game-changing accessories like never before.
There is something undeniably poetic about a saree — it carries centuries in its folds and still moves with quiet grace. With the launch of Pastels SS’25, we present an airy, ethereal take on the silk sarees, bringing forward a collection that marries the elegance of Banarasi textiles and the effortless charm of French aesthetics. Each piece flows with poise and whispers femininity, crafted from butter-soft organzas and shimmering tissue silks in delicate pastel hues of yellow, pink, and blue. Through the prism of elegance and European finesse, this collection reinvents the saree for sun-kissed brunches, languid afternoons, summer weddings, and golden-hued sundowners.
However, what elevates our new edit of the most drapeable sarees into a sartorial statement is our collaboration with Anaash to bring you an array of pearl drenched accents that support all your saree styling dilemmas. Together, they present The Saree Essentials Kit, a lineup of intricately designed pearl adornments such as pallu holders, sari pins, and kamarbandh inspired belts, each meant to transform the drape into an intimate work of art. These pieces allow you to treat your saree like a canvas, styled not by convention, but by instinct and imagination.
With ‘Ekaya Pastels’, styling becomes a tactile form of storytelling, where the saree is not limited by occasion, and accessories are not afterthoughts but centrepieces. Here’s how you can style your saree with ease and creativity:
The Pearl-Belted Wrap
For a blend of classic and new, wrap the saree tightly around your waist like a skirt, leaving out the pleats at the top. Cinch your waist using our Kate belt by Ekaya x Anaash and pair it with a simple white shirt or blouse for a look that’s equal parts relaxed and refined. This style gives the traditional saree a modern, edgy twist and is appropriate for brunches as well as business

The Hybrid Saree Skirt
Transform your saree into a contemporary skirt by pleating the lower half and leaving the upper half open — a creative twist on traditional saree draping styles. Fold in the pleated fabric around your waist and allow the pallu to fall freely to the side, or style it as a scarf. Pair this look with a cropped jacket or an oversized blazer. To ensure that the saree stays perfectly in place while you enjoy the ease of movement, pin the pleats in place with our Alaya pin for a fuss-free look.

The Scarf-Top Combo
A fun and daring option in modern saree styling is to turn one of our scarves into a top. Tie the scarf across your chest as a halter or bandeau top, fastening it with our Raya pin. You may leave the rest of the saree draped around your shoulders or wrap it around your waist like a skirt. This look is perfect for beach holidays or a laid-back brunch with friends.

The Deconstructed Drape
For a laid-back yet fashionable look, drape your saree as a half-saree by pleating just one side of the fabric. Leave the other side of the pallu to drape freely or pin it at the shoulder. To secure the fabric at your waist, accessorise with our Mindy belt. For poolside events or summer festivals, this look can be styled with a fitted bralette or even a swimsuit underneath. Showing off your creative side, the deconstructed drape transforms the saree into an effortless wrap.

The Ekaya x Anaash accessories offer practical yet elegant solutions to styling your saree. These pearl accents help provide support, giving you the freedom to experiment with different drapes, from classic to avant-garde. With ‘Ekaya Pastels’, the Banarasi saree ceases to be hamstrung by tradition, and becomes a celebration of drapes styled with the quiet confidence of pearls. It is where Banaras meets the boudoirs of France.
