Cotton Silk is one of the most popular fabric produced by India. Cotton Silk of every state in India differs from the other & just the tracing of this beautiful buttery fabric, whether Handloom or Powerloom, is an absolute delight. Meiraas presents Aqua Blue Rajnigandha saree on Cotton Silk. This saree has a beautifully embroidered long & heavy palla of Indian Garden Art & the borders of the palla are locked with an unique "bel" (creeper) of Paisley. The saree is embroidered by our regular unit & is yet another example of how we managed to create highly skilled craft from a unit that was accustomed to making rough & unskilled work. When you choose to add this saree to your wardrobe, you contribute towards encouraging skilled & improved craftsmanship for artisans who toiled for over 1 year in creating these wonders. Additional Details: Gota Kingri in Gold/Silver is not visible in the images, but will be added on the saree before shipping. To see how that looks, you can check Pink Rajnigandha Cotton Silk Saree of same price range. The Model in the picture is of 5ft 7.5 inches height & is wearing no heels. Colours like Blue, Red & Green are a little difficult in catching the exact colour. However, we are posting the closest colour here.

Khayal (moodboard): "Rajnigandha Collection was born out of my love of 70s effortless and relatable genre of Hindi Cinema, and the look of the heroines of such films, who felt closer to the women in my family & around me – my mother, my aunts, my teachers – all of whom were heroines in their own life, and were changing the societal mindset, to accept women who knew their mind, could go out & work, or homemakers who needed personal time, have a life and defined choices, while taking their family along in this journey. It was an interesting time!! Rajnigandha was especially chosen for Chikankari sarees, because they were heavily worn by women of all age groups in Lucknow, light worked ones and heavier Tepchi ones in pretty sorbet & pastel shades. The collection is also my heart collective, as it involves Artisan Skill Enhancement at each level, along with using good quality handwoven cotton fabric, all of which is fast disappearing from Chikankari everyday sarees."- Vidhi Rastogi, Head of Creative, Meiraas Poshaak (about the saree): Dussehri is back! Our bestseller that launched in 2021 for the first time, and has been in constant production and demand since then. Dussehri saree has lovely Bakhiya (shadow) Phanda (French knot) embroidery on brilliant Mango yellow of the inside of Dussehri mango. The saree has a very fine border display, and a palla with trellis patteren. Above that, stunning paisley motifs of Dussehri have been printed. This paisley motif is very intricately detailed and embroidered. Extremely fine quality shadow embroidery on palla, enhances the look of this beautiful saree. The rest of body has floral bootis embroidered on its body, making it one of a kind saree. It is a perfect light office/lunch/brunch/casual wear saree, yet one that will make heads turn. The drape is perfect for any weather. Note: Colours might show slight difference in different light. That is due to nature of colour, light under which it is viewed, and various factors. Please bear these factors in mind when making the selection.
