This border is not merely a decorative element; it holds cultural significance, symbolizing prosperity and good fortune. Accompanied traditionally by an angavastram and paired with a short or long kurta, Manyavar鈥檚 Panchakacham sets are crafted from luxurious silk blends and pure silks honouring the essence of auspicious ceremonies.

You can choose a perfect pure silk set or go for a budget-friendly set in silk blends. Plus, you also get colour options in these Panchakachams that will definitely spice up your entire ensemble! The Dhoti & kurta set in pure silk ranges from Rs 15999-19999 whereas if you go for the outfit set in silk blend then you can get it for Rs 4999. Another combination includes the entire set in silk blends while the kurta is in pure silk which retails between Rs 8999-9999.

The Traditional Veshti

Known for its adaptability and timeless appeal, the Veshti is a single cloth piece, elegantly wrapped around the waist. From the daily wear of simple white cotton to the ritualistic silks, the Veshti has been a constant in South Indian attire. Manyavar鈥檚 Veshti sets celebrate this versatility and enduring style. In this collection, Manyavar brings you a harmonious blend of past and present with these Veshti sets, available both in pure silk and silk blends. In this collection, the pure silk kurta and veshti set retails for Rs 17999. Whereas, if you choose the set in artificial silk then the price ranges from Rs 3499-4999. If you choose only the kurta in pure silk while the rest of the ensemble is in silk blend, then you can get the set for Rs 8999.

Add A Matching Angavastram

There are many ways to style a Panchakacham and Veshti set. Traditionally, one goes with a matching Angavastram. An angavastram is a silk or cotton stole that is a quintessential part of a South Indian groom鈥檚 attire. In this ensemble, the stole that鈥檚 draped over the shoulder matches the dhoti. Enriched with a traditional gold zari border, this not only adds a layer of elegance but also serves as a symbol of respect.
