Products & Sizing
This varies by product. Each listing clearly states whether a blouse piece is included. We also offer one of the largest collections of readymade saree blouses in Kerala: padded, non-padded, stretchable, front open, silk, cotton and more, to pair with our sarees.
Measure your bust at the fullest part, in inches. Readymade blouses generally follow this measurement, and stretchable blouses give a little extra flexibility. Not sure? Message us on WhatsApp with your bust measurement and we'll help you pick the right size.
We make every effort to represent colours as accurately as possible. Our product images are enhanced using AI tools to ensure clarity and consistency. That said, slight variations between the screen and the actual product are natural and can occur due to differences in device displays, screen settings, lighting conditions, and the inherent characteristics of handloom fabrics where dye lots may vary marginally. We encourage you to reach out to us on WhatsApp if you would like additional photos or details of any product before purchasing.
We don't offer custom stitching. Minor alterations to fit your size are done free of cost at our Tripunithura boutique, often while you wait.
Front open blouses are easy to put on and take off, and stretchable blouses adjust to your body for all-day comfort.
Yes. See our blouses for kasavu and Kerala set sarees, picked in gold, green, red, maroon and off-white.
Returns, Exchanges & Care
Returns are accepted only if the product received is damaged, has a manufacturing defect, or is different from what was ordered. Report it within 72 hours of delivery. Size or fit issues are covered by an exchange, which must be requested within 72 hours of delivery; the product must be unused, unwashed, unaltered and have its original tags intact. Returns and exchanges are not accepted for change of mind or personal preference. Full details are in our Cancellation, Return & Exchange Policy.
Contact us on WhatsApp or email with your Order Number. All returns and exchanges need prior approval, so please do not send a product back before you receive approval and the return address from us. We currently do not provide reverse pickup. Send the product by India Post or another tracked courier, then share the courier receipt and tracking details.
We are sorry if that happens. Please report it within 72 hours of delivery with your Order Number, clear photos or videos of the issue and a continuous unboxing video. Once the returned product is verified, you can choose a refund, a replacement or AADYA Store Credit. AADYA reimburses the reasonable return courier charge against the courier receipt, and the refund is initiated within 24 hours after verification.
Handloom fabrics are best cared for with gentle handling. We recommend dry cleaning for silk sarees. Cotton and mul mul sarees can be hand-washed in cold water with a mild detergent. Always dry in shade and store folded in a clean muslin cloth to preserve the fabric and colours.
Store sarees in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Wrap them in soft muslin or cotton cloth rather than plastic covers, which can trap moisture. Refold periodically to prevent permanent crease lines.
