Turmeric, marigold, mustard: yellow is the colour of beginnings, worn for haldi, for pooja and for the first festival in a new home.
This edit brings together yellow and mustard Kanjivarams, Tussar and Kota silks and a Paithani, each one sourced directly from the weavers who made it.
For the haldi ceremony, pair a yellow body with a contrast border; for a quieter look, choose mustard with silver zari.
Questions before you choose
What should I wear for a haldi ceremony?
A yellow or mustard silk with a light drape works well. Tussar and Kota are lighter to wear for a long morning; Kanjivaram gives more structure in photographs.
Are the Kanjivarams Silk Mark certified?
Yes. Every Kanjivaram at The Saffron House carries the Silk Mark. Other weaves are described on each product page.
Will the yellow look the same in person?
Screens shift colour, especially with zari. Our Bangalore store will show you the saree in daylight on a WhatsApp video call; book a video call with your shortlist.
