Vardhan Plum Noir Zip Polo — Deep Plum & Gold

Engineered for those who understand that true luxury lives in the details.

1. Fabric Composition

95% GIZA 87 / GIZA 92 Egyptian Cotton | 5% Lycra® Elastane

We source exclusively from the world's most coveted cotton — GIZA Egyptian long-staple fiber, renowned for its exceptional fineness and natural silk-like surface. The addition of 5% Lycra® elastane delivers a subtle, responsive stretch that moves with your body while maintaining a flawless silhouette throughout the day.

Exceptionally long staple fibers create a silky, smooth surface
Superior breathability and moisture absorption for all-day comfort
Natural luster — refined without being shiny
Elastane provides subtle stretch and excellent shape retention

2. Knit Structure

Double Mercerized Premium Ribbed Knit

The fabric undergoes a double mercerization process — a treatment that opens the cotton fibers to their fullest, resulting in deeper color absorption, a silkier hand feel, and a surface that resists pilling over time. On deep plum, the double mercerization produces a richness of tone — dark, saturated, and impossibly luxurious — that lesser fabrics simply cannot achieve.

Luxurious hand feel with a defined, textured appearance
Stays elegant and polished throughout the day
Improved color depth and long-term durability
Significantly reduced pilling over repeated wear and wash

3. Weight

220–230 GSM

Carefully calibrated to strike the perfect balance between substance and comfort — heavy enough to drape with authority, light enough to breathe in warm climates.

4. Fabric Finishing

✔ Bio Wash
✔ Silicone Softener Finish
✔ Enzyme Wash
✔ Anti-Pilling Finish
✔ Compact Pre-Shrink Treatment

5. Collar & Zip Closure

Tonal Plum Collar — Monochromatic | Black Metal Half-Zip

The Plum Noir Polo is built on the power of restraint. The collar is tonal — deep plum on deep plum — creating a seamless, uninterrupted silhouette from neckline to hem. No contrast, no distraction. Just form. The black metal half-zip runs down the center front with a matte black pull — architectural, precise, and deliberately understated. Open it slightly for a relaxed editorial look. Wear it closed for complete authority.

6. Logo & Embroidery

High-Density Embroidery — Satin Stitch Finish | Gold Thread

The Vardhan peacock emblem — wings spread wide, lotus at the base — is rendered in fine gold rayon thread using a satin stitch technique, with an approximate stitch count of 18,000–25,000 stitches. Positioned on the left chest — gold on plum, a combination that has defined luxury for centuries. The "VARDHAN" serif wordmark sits below in matching gold thread. Regal. Magnetic. Unmistakable.

7. Zip Hardware

Black Metal Half-Zip Pull — Matte Finish

Each polo is finished with a premium matte black metal zip pull — smooth in operation, architectural in appearance, and built to last. The matte black finish against the deep plum fabric is a study in tonal luxury — dark on dark, detail on detail. A hardware choice that speaks volumes by saying nothing at all.

8. Construction Details

Single-needle stitching on all visible seams
Reinforced shoulder seams for structural integrity
Taped neck seam for comfort and durability
Side vents with bar tacks for ease of movement
Precision-aligned tonal collar — seamlessly matched, every time
Clean interior finishing — as refined inside as out

9. Fit

Ultra Slim Fit — Women's

Cut close to the body with structured shoulders, a precisely defined chest, a sharp waist taper, and short sleeves ending at the mid-bicep. The ultra slim fit is designed for those who understand that fit is the ultimate luxury — not a size, but a statement. She doesn't wear the polo. The polo wears her.
