Brown Cotton Ikat Long Kurta

Falling straight to knee length, this cotton kurta is woven in an ikat pattern that runs in fine vertical lines down the body. A Chinese collar and V placket with coconut buttons keep the front neat, while full sleeves and side pockets add to the comfort fit. The straight hem sits cleanly at the base. Team it with churidar pyjamas and leather sandals for a festive lunch or a temple visit.
