The striking combination of a deep, almost sapphire royal blue body adorned with subtle gold zari buttas, paired with the vibrant parrot green blouse and borders, immediately signals a costume designed for dynamic stage presence. This particular shade of blue, a favorite among our Arangetram customers, offers a rich backdrop that allows the intricate gold patterns on the green borders and the meticulously pleated fan to truly pop under stage lights. At Shanthi Tailors, with over 57 years of experience dressing performers, we understand that a costume must not only look beautiful but also allow for unhindered, expressive movement.

Designed for Grace & Endurance

• Vibrant Color Palette: The royal blue and parrot green are chosen for their exceptional visibility and contrast, ensuring the dancer stands out from the back row of any auditorium. This combination is a classic for Bharatanatyam and other classical dance forms.
• Comfort-Focused Art Silk Blend: Crafted from a durable art silk blend, this readymade pant costume offers the luxurious sheen of silk without the delicate maintenance. It's lightweight enough for extended practice sessions and rigorous performances, yet substantial enough to maintain its elegant drape and form.
• Precision Tailoring: Each component, from the fitted blouse to the comfortable pant-style lower and the elaborate, pre-stitched fan, is tailored to facilitate the intricate footwork and graceful mudras of Bharatanatyam dance. The fan's pleats are designed to hold their crisp shape, a critical detail for any dance teacher.
