The resort shirt by I was a Sari is a relaxed shirt designed for effortless comfort and warm-weather wear. Defined by a notched collar and turn-up cuffs, this style combines laid-back elegance with fluid construction. Made from upcycled sari fabrics, each resort shirt offers a breathable feel and a naturally expressive look, ideal for slower, everyday moments.
A resort shirt is a relaxed-fit shirt traditionally associated with leisure and warm climates. It typically features a notched collar and an open neckline, creating a casual yet refined silhouette. In the I was a Sari collection, the resort shirt is reinterpreted through upcycled sari textiles, making each piece unique.
This relaxed shirt is designed with an easy, fluid fit that allows comfort and movement throughout the day. The notched collar adds structure without formality, while the turn-up cuffs reinforce the casual, laid-back feel. The shirt can be worn loose or layered, adapting naturally to different body types and styling needs.
Each resort shirt is handmade in Mumbai by women artisans using pre-loved sari fabrics. By repurposing existing textiles, I was a Sari reduces textile waste and supports ethical, small-scale production. Every piece is produced in limited quantities, ensuring individuality and respect for both materials and craftsmanship.
Designed for versatility, the resort shirt is ideal for travel, summer days, and relaxed occasions. It pairs easily with trousers, skirts, or shorts and works well both on its own and layered over tops or dresses. Lightweight fabrics and an open collar make it especially suitable for warm climates.
Each relaxed resort shirt reflects the sari it originates from, resulting in unique variations in colour, pattern, and texture. This circular design philosophy transforms existing fabrics into contemporary garments, proving that relaxed style, sustainability, and individuality can coexist without compromise.

Fit & measurements
Every body measures a little differently, so we size by chest, waist and hip girth rather than guesswork. Use the reference table below alongside the measuring guide to check yourself before you order.
All measurements are body girth, in centimetres, with 1cm of ease already built in.
| Size | XS | S | M | L | XL | XXL |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| EUR | 34 | 36 | 38/40 | 42 | 44 | 46 |
| Chest | 80–84 | 85–89 | 90–95 | 96–101 | 102–108 | 109–115 |
| Waist | 60–64 | 65–69 | 70–75 | 76–81 | 82–88 | 89–95 |
| Low hip | 89–93 | 94–98 | 99–104 | 105–110 | 111–117 | 118–124 |
Between two sizes? Go by your chest measurement first for tops, or hips for bottoms, see the notes below.
Use a soft tape, wear light clothing, and keep the tape level all the way around.
Wrap the tape around the fullest part of your chest, level across the back. Keep it snug, not tight, and read the measurement where the tape meets.
Find your natural waistline, usually the narrowest point of your torso. Don't hold your stomach in, keep the tape level and comfortably snug.
Stand with feet together and wrap the tape around the fullest part of your hips and seat, straight and level front to back.
