The name Namrata is of Sanskrit origin and carries a rich cultural and linguistic heritage. The meaning of the name Namrata can vary slightly depending on regional interpretations, but it generally conveys virtues such as modesty, humility, and simplicity.
 
The Namrata "Kerala-style cotton Settu Mundu with ikkat attached as a border (Kara)" is a special variation of this traditional attire. It is made of soft and breathable cotton fabric, which is comfortable to wear in Kerala's tropical climate. The choice of cotton ensures that it's lightweight and easy to manage.
 
The distinguishing feature of this Settu Mundu is the ikkat border, known as "Kara." Ikkat is a traditional weaving technique where patterns are created by tie-dyeing the threads before they are woven into fabric. The ikkat border adds a touch of traditional and artistic beauty to the mundu. The design and colors of the ikkat border can vary, but they are usually vibrant and eye-catching.
 
The Settu Mundu is paired with a matching ikkat blouse which complements the saree's design, creating a coordinated and elegant look.
