Hi,
I hope you're doing well. Mahira Shawl is made in net fabric which is a very light weight material. However, the shawl is fully embroidered throughout which makes the material heavy. Secondly, since the shawl is made on a sheer fabric and heavily embroidered, it is meant for draping on the shoulders to dress up any outfit. It is not ideal for modesty.
Thank you and have a good day.
