Meiraas Bestseller Resham Chikankari design since its first launch in 2018, the Power of Silence, Dance of the Cranes motif has been one of our most requested motifs. This is the original Luxe version of the kurta with heavy motif work all through.

The Sustainability Quotient (TSQ):

1. Skilled Resham Hand Embroidery on absolutely novel motif art.

2. Exclusive Dance of the Cranes Meiraas motifs carved following all processes.

3. Handloom Chanderi

4. Conceptual Chikankari work, that might someday be housed in a museum of crafts, or a well researched coffee table book.

KHAYAL (mood-board):

The outskirts of the historic & charming city of Lucknow are equally beautiful in their rustic charm. These ancient Indo Gangetic plains are lush with greenery & boasts of one of World’s oldest agrarian civilisation. Watching the emerald landscape of Awadh is a surreal experience, even more so in winters when dotted with the migratory bird population, the most notable of these being the Siberian Cranes, that never enter the city Lucknow, but stay just outside, especially in Nawabgunj Bird Sanctuary. With this concept in mind, we wanted to design motifs that glide in the night sky in a Yin & Yang appeal; we found the desirable art style of these motifs, very surprisingly, in Japan. The ancient Japanese Art style is dramatically circular in design, & it is here that we found our serendipity, the right manner to display the Nawabgunj Cranes. The motif of Chikankari is an exclusive design of Meiraas launched in 2018. Borrowing from Japanese palette, we designed the motifs keeping Chikankari stitches in mind, that best romance the gliding flight of the Siberian Cranes.

POSHAAK (about the dress):

The cranes are falling, gliding, flying & finally in a circular Dance of Love at the statement back, in this Meiraas Exclusive Kurta made on Handloom Chanderi. This Grape coloured kurta has tone on tone embroidery of the Cranes on Handloom Chanderi fabric, with their beaks & eyes highlighted with black thread detailing.

The work is very heavy on front panel & sleeves, compared to the regular Dance of the Cranes design, with the back having the eternal Dance of Love motif, accompanied my celestial Lotus motif all through. It is truly a grand dress.
