KHAYAL (moodboard):
The motifs here represent the beauty of the "graam" or village of Awadh, just on the outskirts of the historic city of Lucknow.
The "mrig" (deer) following the Kastoori (fragrance) of "Mrignayani" (lady) is a poetry etched in Chikankari. This block was made by the son of our block print master. We were so encouraged to see the young generation's interest in creating such artful motifs that we adopted this motif as part of Meiraas collection.
POSHAAK (about the dress): The Mrig and Mrignayani are embroidered in Turquoise Blue in this Meiraas Exclusive Semi Stitched Kurta made on Handloom Cotton. A gentle smattering of Mukaish adds the starry charm to this harmonious flight - Power of Silence. The lace adds charm & romance to the ethereal Kurta. While the Kurta is not exactly opaque as it is White, it is a Cotton Kurta with Chikankari & will not necessarily need lining, unless you choose to take one.
Additional Details: This Kurta can be stitched up-till sizes S (small) to XXL (Extra Extra Large) only. Please select your size & we will stitch it complimentary. Ready Length:Approx. 44 inches.(this is meant to be 60s inspired knee length or just below the knee)

A Kaftan Top is such a saviour! Be it work meetings on a weekend, resort wear for relaxation, a quick trip to a patisserie for a weekend brunch, or a step inside a movie hall or the favourite cafe with a book, a Kaftan Top comes in so handy for everything. Even better, when it is a Chikankari Kaftan Top.
This Kaftan Top has perfect length to enable wearing it with pants (same colour or white), & even wear it standalone to a beach resort. The cool cotton helps in breathability, & the perfect fall makes it ideal for many places. The embroidery motif used is very rarely seen, lotus blooming on a creeper. It features stitches like shadow, ghapsatti, phanda, murri, etc in very intricate detailing. It is something sure to turn heads, and give you the perfect relaxed fit for a summer Dopehri.
