KHAYAL (mood-board):
Noir is desire, Noir is decadence, Noir is dark, Noir is a mood. Chikankari Noir is a moodboard introduced by Meiraas as a reversal of the classic White on White Chikankari. The Noir version is the Black Swan to the classic White Swan Chikankari. It is rarer, deeper and goes to darker depths of mystery.
Noir was first introduced as a concept on Silks (Tussar & Chanderi), and now it is has its equally stunning Pure Linen version with exemplary antique 2 taar embroidery done on antique motifs with masterclass detailing.
POSHAAK (about the dress):
The front of the kurta has a rich antique neckline with embossing stitches of Chikankari like ghaspatti, murri, keel, phanda, that helps the dark embroidery stand out. The back has a stunning antique motif of a psychedelic flower arrangement, that gets its dark version in rare stitches of embossing & hand cut work like hathkati with gold Zari Taar.
It is one incredible masterpiece & will be the most preferred wear for almost any occasion, by simple dressing up & down of accessories.
Additional Details: Made On Order Kurta. Please select your size & we will stitch it complimentary.

KHAYAL (moodboard): Deepmala translates to a "Garland of Diyas" or Earthen lamps, one of the most therapeutic and energising sights of Deepawali festival. There is not one soul who can say that the lit rows of Diyas with their soulful flame does not invoke a sense of calmness, positivity, love and joy. It is one of those moments of joy that is not ephemeral. Do you know why? Because the silent flame of the Diya makes you realise that this is how your Aatman is inside your Body. The realisation brings the relativity & connectivity!! We wanted to capture the glow of Diyas on a Diwali night through a Mukaish creation, and here we did it through DeepMala.
POSHAAK (about the saree): A stunning Black Chanderi Kurta with Deepmala stars of Mukaish on the front panel and sleeves looking like glowing diyas. The back has single star Mukaish allover. This stunning Kurta is fully lined with soft cotton lining to ensure proper comfort.
The Kurta will be further paired with Chaand Jaali Mukaish Organza dupatta, making the set a head turner. Stitching of the Kurta is also complimentary by us. Please leave your size at checkout.

Swarna is a hue we love! We introduced the fabric of Zari Silk (or Tissue) with Resham Chikankari, back in 2020, with our Dhanlakshmi collection. Since then, this is one of our most revered & loved creations.
Our moodboard was inspired by the ancient Indian sculptures that showcased very intricate & deep work on rich fabrics. We wanted to explore this unexplored dimension with Chikankari work, and it turned out ethereal!!
POSHAAK (about the dress):
The Swarna Ambi dupatta has beautiful Gold Ambi motifs on two sides of the daaman diagonally. The workmanship in the Ambi motif is exquisite with many rare stitches, including qasab taar ki jaali.

The delicate, yet rich dupatta is made on Tissue Georgette fabric allowing a light weight & flattering drape. Please see the full dupatta images by scrolling till the end.
