LOLITA by BONGONIKETAN reimagines Bengal's iconic Laal Paar Shada Saree through the artistic expression of traditional Batik craft. Handwoven from the finest pure Mulberry silk, the saree features the timeless combination of an ivory-white body and vibrant red border, elevated with meticulous hand-painted wax-resist Batik artwork that makes every piece truly one of a kind. Each saree is handwoven over several days by skilled Bengal artisans before undergoing an additional stage of painstaking Batik hand painting. Using the traditional wax-resist technique, artisans apply layers of wax and colour by hand to create intricate patterns that cannot be replicated by machines. The result is a saree with rich artistic depth, natural variations and handcrafted individuality, ensuring that no two LOLITA sarees are ever identical. Soft, lightweight and breathable, the pure Mulberry silk offers a graceful drape with a natural sheen, making it ideal for extended wear. Whether styled in the classic Bengali drape for Durga Puja, weddings, sindoor khela and cultural celebrations or paired with contemporary blouses for modern occasions, LOLITA blends heritage craftsmanship with versatile elegance. Created in collaboration with Bengal's weaving and Batik artisan communities, every LOLITA saree reflects the values of slow fashion, authentic handloom weaving and traditional hand painting. It is designed for those who appreciate handcrafted luxury and seek an authentic Bengal silk saree that celebrates both artistry and cultural identity.
