Kashmir has a colour that no paint company has ever quite named — the particular sage green of a valley hillside in early spring, just before the flowers arrive. The Novbahar Sage Green Co-ord Set starts there.

Part of the Novbahar 2026 Collection by KashmirPheran — our first collection of Kashmiri Aari embroidery co-ord sets designed entirely by artisans rooted in the Kashmir Valley — this piece was made for women who want something that feels considered, not mass-produced.

The co-ord is made in Ruby Cotton — a premium lightweight fabric that breathes well through Indian summers while holding its shape across long days. The sage green base is deliberately understated, chosen so that the powder blue and ivory Kashmiri Aari embroidery — intricate floral vine motifs drawn from Kashmir's craft vocabulary — becomes the centrepiece of the outfit, not an afterthought.

The embroidery runs across the neckline, three-quarter sleeves, side panels of the tunic, and the hemline of both the top and pants — giving the piece a finished, deliberate look from every angle. The straight-cut silhouette with a notched round neckline and side slits is designed to flatter across body types, sitting relaxed at the thigh without being shapeless.

How to Style

For festive daywear — pair with oxidised silver jhumkas, an ivory or cream potli bag, and tan kolhapuris. The powder blue embroidery against sage green is a complete palette on its own — keep everything else neutral and let the outfit breathe.

For workwear — style with pointed white block heels, a structured tan or nude tote, and simple silver studs. Sage green reads as a sophisticated muted neutral in professional settings — polished without effort, memorable without noise.

For a casual day out — wear with white sneakers, a minimal canvas sling bag, and your hair loose or in a low bun. The relaxed three-quarter sleeves and straight cut make this effortless for markets, brunches, or long afternoons.

About the Craft & the Artisans

Kashmiri Aari embroidery is one of India's most recognisable craft traditions — distinguished by its intricate floral and paisley motifs, its confident use of colour contrast, and the depth of design knowledge required to create each pattern. The craft takes its name from the aari, a fine hooked needle historically used to work thread through fabric in continuous chain-stitch loops.

The motifs on every piece in the Novbahar Collection were designed by artisans based in the Kashmir Valley — craftspeople who carry generations of pattern-making knowledge specific to this region. The embroidery is produced in Kashmir and each co-ord set is stitched and finished there, ensuring that the creative and economic value of this craft stays rooted in the community that created it.

At KashmirPheran, we believe that Kashmiri craft deserves a global audience — not as a museum piece, but as living, wearable design that belongs in a modern wardrobe. The Novbahar 2026 Collection is our contribution to that.
