KHAYAL (mood-board):

The city of Lucknow, & its popular cultural iconography is defined by two leitmotifs; one of them is the mysterious and glorious architecture of Rumi Darwaza, that finds no parallel from any gateway in the World. The second is the interesting story of the Taj or the Crown of Lucknow, that caused a political turmoil in the Awadh Riyasat, back in the days.

We wanted to create a historical piece of wearable art that capture both these iconographies in one neat creation, & the result was the moodboard of Rumi Taj kurta.

POSHAAK (about the dress):

This almond hued Kurta has the glorious Rumi Darwaza motif (a Meiraas Exclusive) on the back of the kurta. The front has the antique Taj miniature motif scattered on the front & sleeves. The neckline has the stunning & very complex Hathkati & Murri (rice grain) neckline. The whole kurta is made with very rare stitches like Murri, Hathkati, Orma, Hool, Bijli, Shadow, Zari Taar Jaali, Ghaspatti. It is a stunning kurta that is a wearable piece of art.
