Finished with a functional hook-eye closure at the back neck, the piece is designed to be styled with formal palazzos for a refined, statement look.

Compliments all evening

The noir black really pops in daylight — photos don't do this cape tunic justice. The inclusive sizing is such a relief — finally a brand that fits. Gifted it to my sister and she absolutely loved it. Wore it to our griha pravesh and it felt just right for the occasion. My festive wardrobe thanks me.

Craft you can feel

Ordered the noir black cape tunic on a whim and have zero regrets. Delivery was quick and the parcel was lovely. You can feel the handwork in every inch of it. Would buy again in a heartbeat.

Beautiful batik

I keep getting asked where I bought this cape tunic. The length is perfect — flattering without being fussy. Bought one for my bhabhi too — both were a hit. Arrived well before the celebration, beautifully packed.

Office-party approved

My sister-in-law loved hers so much she asked for the link. Customer service was so helpful with my size query. Wore it to my office party and so many colleagues asked where it was from. Took a couple of days longer to arrive than I'd hoped, but worth the wait. Glad I bought it.

Such a head-turner

The noir black cape tunic photographs beautifully and feels even better on. The size range meant my mum and I both found our fit. Versatile enough to wear well beyond the festive season. My festive wardrobe thanks me.

So easy to wear

Third order from this label and it has quietly become a staple. The print has depth no digital print gets and makes plain accessories look deliberate. The cloth stays breathable even fully covered and feels properly premium, which was a pleasant surprise.

Loved it

Quietly luxurious

The cape tunic looks far more expensive than it is. Got it for an anniversary dinner and loved how it photographed. The pure silk feels indulgent and drapes elegantly. True to size and the length was perfect for me. Worth every rupee.

Dreamy set

Picked it up for family function and it was perfect for the whole day. Gave it to my mum as a griha pravesh gift and she wears it everywhere now. The hand-printed detail has so much character. Will definitely order again.

Worth every rupee

Honestly one of the prettiest cape tunics I own now. The material feels premium and holds its shape well. Pairs effortlessly with both palazzos and straight pants. Buying more for the family.

Picked one up as a gift and ended up ordering a second for myself. Such an easy piece to style for any occasion. Buying more for the family.

Elegant and comfy

I was unsure ordering online, but the noir black cape tunic is stunning.

Lovely for the price

Fit was flattering without any alteration needed. Worth it.

Lovely weight

Wore it to a co-working space all week and stayed comfortable start to finish. The modal irons crisp in seconds and is genuinely soft — I checked twice. The length held through a long day of sitting and works whether I am 2kg up or down, which almost never happens for me.

Wore it over trousers to office and it worked in 38-degree heat. The fabric quality has that dry, cool handle good cotton should have and has enough structure to hold a pleat, better than pieces at twice the price.

Stunning

Took a chance on the shade and it was the right call. The fit was right first try and matched the listed measurements exactly — a relief when ordering online. The weave has zero see-through in daylight and catches light through the slub.

Charu Oberoi

Wore it with jeans for a casual lunch and got photographed more than the food. The weight of it sits away from the body in the heat and has a quiet sheen in daylight.
