Frequently asked questions

What is sindoor in the red look?

Sindoor is the red powder or paste that married Hindu women wear in the parting of the hair. The red bridal look shows it.

Does the soft maroon look use red?

It uses maroon on the lid and lip, with a red chunri over the head in the picture.

Can I ask for a different festival?

Yes. Type the festival as a direction, and the three looks are the starting point.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
