THE SUSTAINABILITY QUOTIENT (TSQ):
Artisan Skill enhancement: Exclusive Meiraas Patta Patta Boota Boota Motif embroidery that is a mix of Aari & Chikankari in same motif.
Handmade in India
KHAYAL (mood board):"When i had designed the first Tunic & Palazzo set (it was yellow and my personal set), i was very new into this work & having grown up seeing Chikankari wanted something radically different in motifs and layout, yet something that does not defeat or overpower the elegant & laidback mood that the craft is identified with & loved for. I continue to be a rebel in my thoughts about designing Chikankari pieces & by now that has become a signature style of Meiraas. This ensemble was designed to be something you can slip on easily in casual or formal meetings in India, & as comfortably carry them in SoHo, New York or a French Countryside in a vineyard possibly. The idea was my rebellious little mind that wanted tradition to carry on, yet break from the pattern and do it" - Vidhi Rastogi, Head of Design, MeiraasPOSHAAK (about the product):
Soft cotton Chikankari Tunic (Kurta) in Meiraas Exclusive Patta Boota Motif. The interesting part of this Motif Embroidery is the clever confluence of two styles of embroidery in one motif, both native to Lucknow, Aari & Chikankari. The Flower is filled with Aari stitch, whereas the rest of the motif is done in Chikankari. Both seamlessly come together in a perfect symbiosis.
About the Tunic (Kurta): The length is 41 inches for each Kurta. This length can be shortened 2 inches only on request. The motifs are 3 on hemline, one each on either shoulder. Please mention your size as per size chart on checkout.
About the Palazzo (Pants): The waistband is belt style (flat) in front & elastic at the back. The motif comes 1 each on each leg. Length is 37 inches and can be altered.
Important:
Chikankari garments are translucent by nature as they are mostly made on lighter cottons & in natural white or pastel shades. To wear a slip underneath is subjective to the wearer's comfort

Pristine White Pure Georgette 2 Taar Semi Stitched Chikankari Kurta Dupatta set. This can be stitched on request, or purchased as it is.
Before making this Art Investment, here are few details we have put together for you:
Understand 2 Taar Concept:
Any Hand Embroidery is done with 5-6 Taar (filament of embroidery thread).
Chikankari is mostly done with 4-5 Taar (filament of embroidery thread).
Maximum Meiraas Chikankari is Resham 3 Taar, except few pieces.
2 Taar work is therefore the MOST PREMIUM Chikankari work. Why?
The reduced thread count means finer work, more artisan hours, special craftsmanship skill
Seasoned artisans can work with as little thread count as 2 Taar & their availability is limited, making such pieces LIMITED EDITION.
2 Taar is also premium because the less thread count makes the needle move more intricately.
The suit will be fully embroidered, yet lightweight - the epitome of Class & Fine Aesthetics.
Common Misinformation spread by online sellers:
There is NO SUCH THING as 1 Taar & 2 Taar in same piece. It is either 1 Taar or 2 Taar. 1 Taar ensemble are super rare & rarely done all over due to the craft being Platinum Standard of Chikankari Work.
2 Taar & above work will be premium due to the many reasons explained above.
Fabrics generally used for 2 Taar Chikankari:
This work is mostly done on Pure Georgette to make it visible as the thread count is less.
The premium price bracket of the suit attracts premium fabrics like Pure Georgette.
