Celebrate Onam in style with the White Shirt & Gold Jari Border Cotton Double Dhoti Set from Alaya Cotton — a perfect blend of tradition and elegance designed just for this festive occasion. When Kerala honours the return of King Mahabali and the harvest of the land, your attire should reflect both respect and refined style.
Why This Set Stands Out for Onam
A Classic Colour Scheme with Cultural Significance
White paired with gold is the signature palette for Onam’s traditional dress code for men — the white mundu or dhoti with gold (kasavu/jari) borders symbolises purity, prosperity and festive joy. This set honours that palette beautifully and adds comfort and style.
Premium Fabrication & Double Dhoti Design
The cotton fabric ensures comfort throughout the long hours of celebration, whether for the pookalam (flower carpet) rituals, the Onasadya feast, or family get‑togethers. The “double” dhoti style offers a fuller drape and a more formal, elevated silhouette that’s ideal for special occasions.
Elegant Gold Jari Borders for Festive Impact
The gold jari (metallic thread weaving) border adds richness to the ensemble. This detail gives your outfit a refined look, making it perfect for formal Onam functions, photo‑worthy moments, and cultural gatherings.
What the Set Includes
- A crisp, white cotton shirt — tailored for a clean, formal ethnic look.
- A matching white double‑layered cotton dhoti with a gold jari border — combining traditional drape with modern finish.
- Styling versatility that allows you to pair accessories such as angavastrams (shoulder shawls), traditional footwear, or subtle jewellery to complete the Onam look.
How to Style Your Onam Outfit
- Wear the white shirt and double dhoti set exactly as designed for a clean, traditional look. This maintains the cultural essence of Onam dress while looking polished.
- Add an angavastram in cream or off‑white with a gold border to layer your outfit — adding texture and depth while staying within traditional colour themes.
- Pair with handcrafted leather sandals or mojaris for an authentic finish. Simple gold‑tone cuff‑links or a minimal bracelet can enhance the look without distracting.
- For modern occasions, you might add a sleeveless ethnic jacket in a muted shade (perhaps cream or soft beige) to give your ensemble extra structure and flair.
Care Tips to Preserve the Quality
- Wash your shirt and dhoti gently by hand or machine on a gentle cycle using cold water and mild detergent to preserve the whiteness and the gold jari borders.
- Refrain from bleach or harsh chemicals that could dull the gold threads.
- Dry in the shade to protect against colour fading and to keep the fabric crisp.
- Iron on medium heat, focusing on the dhoti’s folds and borders to maintain a sharp drape.
