About This Us

There's something about powder blue that just feels like a quiet morning — soft, unhurried, and effortlessly beautiful. The Nusrat suit from Lily & Lali captures exactly that mood. Crafted in fine chanderi fabric and brought to life with delicate embroidery, this three-piece set is the kind of outfit you reach for when you want to look put-together without really trying.

Some outfits earn a permanent place in your wardrobe. Not because of one big occasion, but because they keep showing up — at Sunday lunches, at your cousin's mehendi, at that afternoon puja you almost forgot about. The Nusrat salwar suit from Lily & Lali is one of those pieces.

The colour alone does half the work. Powder blue has this rare quality — it's calm without being boring, festive without screaming for attention. Paired with the natural sheen of chanderi, it catches light in the gentlest way possible, giving the entire silhouette a luminous, almost ethereal quality.

What makes this suit truly special is the embroidery. Each motif is placed with intention — not scattered randomly across the fabric, but arranged to follow the drape of the kurta, enhancing the neckline, cuffs, and hem in a way that feels balanced and thoughtfully done. The threadwork sits beautifully against the powder blue base, creating contrast that's rich but never overdone.

Chanderi as a fabric has been loved for centuries, and for good reason. Woven originally in Madhya Pradesh, it brings together the breathability of cotton and the quiet luxury of silk — so you stay comfortable through a three-hour function and still look like you just stepped out. It doesn't crease badly, it drapes beautifully, and it has that signature translucent quality that makes every movement feel graceful.

The suit comes as a full three-piece set — kurta, salwar, and dupatta — styled to work together as a cohesive look. The dupatta carries a subtle border that ties the whole ensemble together without demanding too much attention.

This is ethnic dressing at its most relaxed and refined.

Styling Notes

Keep the jewellery minimal and the look will speak for itself. A pair of pearl drops or delicate gold jhumkas work beautifully with the powder blue. For footwear, slip into nude block heels or embroidered mojaris — either way, you're sorted. A potli bag in ivory or gold ties the whole look together without pulling focus away from the suit.

If you're heading somewhere slightly more formal, add a kundan choker and let the dupatta drape over one shoulder. For a relaxed afternoon look, toss the dupatta loosely and swap the heels for flats.

Why You'll Love It

Wears light, looks rich — chanderi never weighs you down, no matter how long the event runs.

That colour is endlessly flattering — powder blue works across skin tones in a way that deeper shades sometimes don't.

Embroidery that ages well — there are no sequins to fall off or threads to snag. This is clean, classic work.

A brand you can trust — Lily & Lali has built a solid name for delivering quality chanderi sets that look exactly as good in person as they do in photos.
