Shankpushpi flower is the inspiration behind this beautiful kurta. Just like the legendary flower, this kurta reminds one of the Chikankari of the more Innocent Age of fine Craftsmanship!
POSHAAK (about the dress):
Let us take you into the embroidery of this kurta step by step!
The neckline has a very fine Murri, Shadow and Ghaspatti bel. The same gets repeated on the sleeve! Its a rarity to see these two embossed stitches together in this layout.
A statement antique motif of Conch Shell shaped flower adorns the tunic on the front & the back. This motif has the following very finely done stitches in Kaccha Taagha - Jaali, Hathkati (2 cutworks together), Murri, Ghaspatti, Orma, Phanda.
Miniature Floral Motifs adorn the rest of the kurta in a delicate flowy pattern of falling blooms.
The tunic is a visual poetry.
The Kaccha Taar Chikankari refers to Chikankari done with unreeled, raw thread. The filament of such cotton thread is extremely fine. It has to be taken out from the raw clump by hand, retted by hand, and made pliable for embroidery by hand everytime, unlike a reeled thread that is ready to use.
This thread gives the look & finish of the Golden Age Chikankari that one can find in Textile Books and Craft Museums.
The extremely soft Handloom Cotton base gives the Kurta a very flattering fall, & provides extreme comfort, while being elegant.
