Kanakavalli is delighted to present the Bailou Pop Up, a festive showcase of exquisite handloom saris that celebrate the weaving traditions of West Bengal and beyond.
Discover a curated collection of handcrafted drapes in matka and tussore silk, silk cotton, linen silk and more, in a palette of luminous hues perfect for a season of celebration. The curation includes saris embellished with traditional jamdani patterns in silver and gold metallic thread, painstakingly woven in an extra-weft technique, as well as intricate brocading executed entirely by hand. Look out for saris adorned with jacquard detail woven on traditional pit looms, and saris in fine handspun cotton, featuring tabby patterns woven on 'Chittaranjan' looms that date back to the time of India's Satyagraha Movement.
Bailou has earned a UNESCO Seal of Excellence for Handicrafts for its unique double cloth pocket technique - enclosing shimmering sequins into tiny pockets created between layers of silk.
Drawing from the textile traditions of West Bengal as well as other craft clusters, Bailou reimagines handlooms through a contemporary lens. Infusing heritage saris with modern sensibilities, the brand creates timeless heirlooms that embody luxury and versatility.
