Do you remember those Onam mornings when the house woke up earlier than the sun?
The courtyard filled with fresh flower petals for the pookalam, the kitchen buzzing with the aroma of sambar and payasam, the sound of laughter spilling in from every corner—Onam was never just a festival, it was a feeling of home.
And what better way to celebrate than by wearing outfits that reflect the same joy?
This year, The Indian Motif’s Ponn-Onam Collection does exactly that—bringing you sarees and dhotis that are festive, playful, and deeply rooted in Kerala’s culture. Think elephants, think Vallamkali boats, think soft and stylish cottons. Every piece tells a story.
The Spirit of Onam, Reimagined
Crafted in soft Balaramapuram cotton, the collection is as breezy as those festive afternoons spent sharing stories after the grand sadya. But what makes it truly special are the motifs—little echoes of Kerala’s soul:
Elephants, symbols of prosperity, hand-blocked with charm and whimsy.
Vallamkali boats, echoing the rhythm and energy of Kerala’s famous snake boat races.
Classic Kasavu borders, woven in timeless white and gold but reimagined for 2025. Every motif is more than fabric—it’s a festive canvas.
A Celebration of Many Moods
Our Onam Collection is full of stories. The Kathakali designs remind us of powerful performances that bring legends to life, while the Kolam patterns take us back to doorsteps decorated with love and artistry. The elephant motifs capture the joy of temple parades, and the handblock prints carry the touch of artisans who have kept age-old traditions alive.
And there’s even more — from delicate florals to temple patterns and earthy woven textures. Each piece is made to bring Onam’s spirit into your home and your celebrations, whether you’re marking the festival in a big way or In small, personal moment.
Styling Tips for the Season
Onam dressing is all about adding thoughtful details that make tradition shine. Start with jewelry - traditional kaashu mala, manga mala, palakka necklace or temple-inspired pieces, gold-toned bangles, or a bold choker can instantly lift a simple saree or kurta. Belts are another way to modernize tradition: cinch your saree or long kurti with a handcrafted belt to give another chic twist.
The Idea is simple: let tradition meet creativity in small details that make your look unforgettable.
This Onam, Wear a Memory
Festivals are fleeting, but memories last forever. The Ponn-Onam Collection by The Indian Motif lets you wrap yourself not just in fabric, but in the warmth of everything Onam stands for togetherness, nostalgia, and abundance.
