A: We generally use a high-quality art silk or cotton-silk blend for the 'Dothi Costume'.

A: We recommend dry cleaning the 'Dothi Costume' to preserve the fabric's texture and color. After each performance, air it out thoroughly. Store it in a breathable garment bag, away from direct sunlight, to prevent fading and damage to delicate embellishments. Avoid ironing directly; steam if necessary.
