Bisaat or the chessboard was the biggest conversation starter in Awadh; this past legacy has been recreated on this showstopper saree.
Painstaking research work was done to recreate these motif that you can read here Falaknuma

KHAYAL (mood-board):
The skyline of Lucknow is incomplete without the gliding silence of Kites. Watching them is a therapeutic & out of body experience. During our childhood, taking cups of tea in the evening & sitting on the rooftop & watching the gliding Kites was a popular Luckhnavi leisue activity, as was flying it. Times changed & everything became fast paced, pushing these slow activities to the back-burner. They were seen as something ancient & not quite fitting in. Still, when we meet our Lucknow friends or family, the gliding & elegant Kites make way back into the conversation with the oft repeated "Don't know where that time flew by" - Power of Silence. This motif of Chikankari is an exclusive design of Meiraas launched in 2018.
POSHAAK (about the dress): Patangbaazi or the Kite Flying Ritual as it was called is shown on the Kurta with the back & sleeves showing the Rooster Motif in pastel Blue colour in Meiraas Exclusive Kurta made on Handloom Chanderi.
Important: The kurta will come with a detachable slip complimentary from Meiraas, along with stitching & finishing also complimentary.
