A Chikankari Wardrobe or even a Summer Wardrobe is absolutely incomplete without the essential Cotton White Kurta with White Chikankari.
Made on Pure Soft Cotton this straight cut Kurta has stunning Mughal Flower Boota at the hemline & one at the back. To keep the work minimalist we have given small floral bootas allover.
The Floral Mughal Boota is has a rare stitch HATHKATI (which literally means cut by hand) in the stem of the Flower, while Bakhiya, Ghaspatti, Keel come together to make the full flower. A perfect anywhere & everywhere pick!!

KHAYAL (moodboard):
The motifs here represent the beauty of the "graam" or village of Awadh, just on the outskirts of the historic city of Lucknow.
The "mrig" (deer) following the Kastoori (fragrance) of "Mrignayani" (lady) is a poetry etched in Chikankari. This block was made by the son of our block print master. We were so encouraged to see the young generation's interest in creating such artful motifs that we adopted this motif as part of Meiraas collection.
POSHAAK (about the dress): The Mrig and Mrignayani are embroidered in Turquoise Blue in this Meiraas Exclusive Semi Stitched Kurta made on Handloom Cotton. A gentle smattering of Mukaish adds the starry charm to this harmonious flight - Power of Silence. The lace adds charm & romance to the ethereal Kurta. While the Kurta is not exactly opaque as it is White, it is a Cotton Kurta with Chikankari & will not necessarily need lining, unless you choose to take one.
