Raw Mango returns to its annual summer explorations with textiles made for life under the Indian sun. This collection of saris presents an unhurried vision of modernity, designed to align with our environments and our bodies. These are everyday weaves layered with history which respond to the lives and curiosities of the people that inhabit them.

Sooti from Bengal offers the comfort and practicality of cotton, well suited to the summer months. For the first time at Raw Mango, Maheshwari silks join the fray through explorations with Eri silk from the north-eastern regions of the subcontinent known for its excellent thermal properties, staying cool in the summer and warm in the winter. Alongside continued explorations in Mashru through plays of pattern, placement and colour, the collection is crafted for everyday life.

Adornments across the collection remain light and executed with restraint — making these saris suitable to be worn all-day. A prominent motif is found in geometric checks, chosen for the subtle texture they bring to these textiles.
