The mul cotton is what we call ˜Made in Heaven at Suta. Known in West Bengal as mul mul, the fabric is what can be categorised as muslin cotton. It is believed that this fine method of weaving cotton can be traced back to even before the Indus valley civilisation. What makes this fabric special is the almost magical process of weaving it. Cotton fibres are separated and spun into strong threads. The lightest and the most delicate fibres are separated and are then spun into muslin thread. These are then woven into fabrics by skilled weavers. The history of muslin weaving is a beautiful chapter in the history of Indian textiles. The process of the yore was much more complex and involved many unique tools that look primitive but worked like magic. The upper jaw of a catfish was used to initially clean the cotton before spinning. To separate the lightest fibres, a Dhunkar (a bamboo bow) was used, which when strung in a distinctive way made the lighter fibres rise above the heavier ones. This process gave the title ˜woven air to the muslin fabric. Weavers famously wove on looms that were at ground level and operated the looms from pits dug in the ground. Even during the Mughal era, the muslin fabric was seen as a symbol of power for its finesse. History is full of anecdotes to prove the awe that the muslin fabric generated. Emperor Aurangzeb is said to have chided his daughter Zeb-un-Nisa for appearing naked in the court when in reality she had been wearing several layers of the muslin cloth! Such was the fabrics delicateness. The almost invisible fabric had made an Arab traveller in the 10th century remark that the degree of fineness is such that a garment can be drawn through a ring of a middling size. During the British colonisation and even during the Mughal rule, the art of weaving muslin took a hit as weavers were treated poorly and drought hit many of the weaving centres. As a result, today, the process of weaving has seen a lot of change. Nevertheless, the essence of it hasnt changed and the charm of the fabric still remains.

This was my 4th order, and I already own 7 beautiful sarees from your Mul collection. I can't express how much I love them. Everyone has praised me multiple times for the color, fabric, and everything about the saree—it's superb! You won't believe it, but this time even my 4-year-old son said, "Momma, you are looking like a woww!"
Thank you for making us feel beautiful and confident in sarees.
The Saree is soft and absolutely beautiful! Loved the piece.
You look stunning! We are so glad that you loved your Suta purchase. Keep shopping with us!
Product packaging and delivery very good
Bought it a second time! This time for my sister in law. She loved it when I wore it
:) That is me in the picture. I love the sarees from suta, one of my many buys.
You look so elegant! Thank you for sharing the picture and the feedback! Lots of love.
Pathetic experience. Saree looks dull and faded and even after constant emails, there has no one to pick up my product since ten days! They are ready to exchange after they receive my product and since ten days no one is coming to pick the saree up. Being a single working woman, it’s now included in my daily routine to put the parcel for pick up outside my flat and collect it back after I come back…Congratulations for disappointing me every day..
We are extremely sorry for unpleasant experience you had with us. We have again informed the relevant team arrange reverse pick up.
