The navy blue nzeppel tiered pre-draped saree set by Asaga is stitched into a skirt of ruffled tiers, each edged with a band of mirror and thread embroidery, with a satin pallu that crosses the body and drops over the shoulder. The halter blouse has a high collar, an open back and a scooped hem, worked with mirror and thread florals. Because the pleats are already set into the skirt, it goes on like a skirt, with no draping to learn. It belongs at a cocktail evening, a sangeet or a reception, when you want a saree that looks sculpted.

Asaga is an Indian label created for women, by women. It designs wedding and festive wear for the cosmopolitan Indian woman who takes pride in her South Asian heritage and wants a personal style of her own. Its collections, including Lumi, Chique, Opuluxe, Dewdrop and Urban Zen, bring together lehengas, drape sarees, sharara sets and jacket sets in hand-embroidered fabrics.

Country of Origin

All orders ship from India on Delivered Duty Unpaid (DDU), also called Delivered At Place (DAP). This means your checkout total does not include import duties, customs charges and taxes, or carrier brokerage/clearance fees. These charges are determined by the destination country’s customs authority and must be paid directly to the shipping carrier before delivery. Your package will not clear customs until these charges are paid.

In all countries, your customs office or the carrier may additionally require information such as a tax ID, identification number, or government-issued ID to clear your shipment. For orders shipping within India, no import duties are applicable.

If customs payment is not made within the carrier’s deadline (typically 24–48 hours after contact), the shipment may return to us. All return freight, customs charges, and associated fees will be billed to the customer.

If a shipment is abandoned by customs or returned due to non-payment/insufficient information, the order remains final sale and no refund will be issued for the merchandise. Any additional costs are the customer’s responsibility.
