Beautiful Mukaish Kurta Fabric on Leheriya, accompanied by a dupatta to make one of a kind set that harks to the antique Awadhi Couture style, when ladies of the erstwhile royal kingdom, wore Leheriya adorned with Mukaish embroidery! This piece however has travelled to 3 Indian states to complete its journey The Sustainability Quotient (TSQ):

Khayal (moodboard): When creating this dress, we wanted to delve into the very functional old school tailoring, that is rare to find now. This is a fine Jacket style front open Kurta dress. The style is borrowed from Achkan worn by Nawab Aristocracy in the old days. The design is made more contemporary & has been reimagined for women. The embroidery has minimalist and antique sensibility, with focus given to fine quality craftsmanship. Wooden button detailing add a regal grace to this dress. Poshaak (about the garment): Cover Me In Sunshine is a vibrant bright yellow coloured Achkan Dress, where the front panel is embroidered in a V shape panel (reference taken from early 19th Century archival Chikankari piece). The embroidery is very fine and intricate, done with fine Resham filaments in rare stitches like Murri & Ghaspatti featured very prominently, amongst others. The back features the stunning Nritya Mayur motif, an antique more than 100 year old motif.

Tulip Royale Ensemble | Ocean

₹34,300.00

This Ensemble is Made On Order only. Please select your size & we will stitch it complimentary. Meiraas Exclusive Chikankari motif, Tulip Royale & Miniature Frame, has been conceptualised into an ensemble. It’s a novel art in Chikankari, introduced by Meiraas. The Sustainability Quotient (TSQ): 1. Skilled Resham Hand Embroidery on Exclusive motif art by Meiraas 2. Exclusive & Rare Conceptual Chikankari Embroidery, with masterclass Jaali work 3. Handloom Chanderi & Pure Organza Silk (for dupatta) 4. Conceptual Chikankari work, that might someday be housed in a museum of crafts, or a well researched coffee table book. KHAYAL (mood-board): Tulips have captured the mind space of Art connoisseurs alike the World Over. Maybe its alluring form is the reason, or their vibrant colours, but the elegant and beautiful Tulips find themselves as the centrepiece in many works of Art, including Textiles, where they have a dominating presence in some cultures. In Chikankari, we wanted these celebrated blossoms to be represented too, as the craft seems to be made for them. Our visit to a Tulip Show in New Delhi, in February of 2024, solidified this dream. POSHAAK (about the dress): The intertwined pair of Tulips find their romantic adaptation in Chikankari, through Tulip Royale ensemble. The front panel & sleeves has the Tulip Royale motif patterned heavily all through, creating a beautiful tone on tone effect in Ocean Blue shade of the Handloom Chanderi kurta. The back of the Kurta has the Tulip Royale encased inside a miniature oval frame motif, to show the allure of the blossom & its representation in Art. This motif has the rarest 3D embroidery, & the first of its kind in Chikankari. The complete oval miniature motif has been embroidered with Qasab Taar jaali, possibly the largest surface to have Jaali stitch in. The tulip encased inside this frame has other Chikankari stitches like Orma, Bijli & Shadow. The Jaali embroidery changes the shade of the Blue of the miniature oval, while the blue of the portions where Shadow embroidery is done have another hue; then again, the flower area with Orma stitch is darker and different blue from the Jaali & Stalk part of the embroidery. This enables 3 subtly changed shades of Blue, achieved via masterclass embroidery technique. The dupatta is Organza Silk with Tulip Motif Chikankari miniature boota scattered and Mukaish dots added all over. It adds to the ethereal charm of the whole ensemble. If you wish to add plain Glazed Cotton pants in same shade to match, you can select the same from Glazed Cotton Plain Pants and in Customer Note mention: Please make Pants to match the selected set. We will do the needful This post has Dupatta & Kurta (stitching & slip is complimentary). Pants can be added extra, as explained above.

Meiraas Bestseller Resham Chikankari design since its first launch in 2018, the Power of Silence, Dance of the Cranes motif has been one of our most requested motifs. This is the original Luxe version of the kurta with heavy motif work all through. The Sustainability Quotient (TSQ): 1. Skilled Resham Hand Embroidery on absolutely novel motif art. 2. Exclusive Dance of the Cranes Meiraas motifs carved following all processes. 3. Handloom Chanderi 4. Conceptual Chikankari work, that might someday be housed in a museum of crafts, or a well researched coffee table book. KHAYAL (mood-board): The outskirts of the historic & charming city of Lucknow are equally beautiful in their rustic charm. These ancient Indo Gangetic plains are lush with greenery & boasts of one of World's oldest agrarian civilisation. Watching the emerald landscape of Awadh is a surreal experience, even more so in winters when dotted with the migratory bird population, the most notable of these being the Siberian Cranes, that never enter the city Lucknow, but stay just outside, especially in Nawabgunj Bird Sanctuary. With this concept in mind, we wanted to design motifs that glide in the night sky in a Yin & Yang appeal; we found the desirable art style of these motifs, very surprisingly, in Japan. The ancient Japanese Art style is dramatically circular in design, & it is here that we found our serendipity, the right manner to display the Nawabgunj Cranes. The motif of Chikankari is an exclusive design of Meiraas launched in 2018. Borrowing from Japanese palette, we designed the motifs keeping Chikankari stitches in mind, that best romance the gliding flight of the Siberian Cranes. POSHAAK (about the dress): The cranes are falling, gliding, flying & finally in a circular Dance of Love at the statement back, in this Meiraas Exclusive Kurta made on Handloom Chanderi. This Grape coloured kurta has tone on tone embroidery of the Cranes on Handloom Chanderi fabric, with their beaks & eyes highlighted with black thread detailing. The work is very heavy on front panel & sleeves, compared to the regular Dance of the Cranes design, with the back having the eternal Dance of Love motif, accompanied my celestial Lotus motif all through. It is truly a grand dress.

KHAYAL (moodboard): Paan is a very endearing moodboard of Lucknow, let alone the rest of Bharat. Paan holds not just aesthetic value for us, but it is also considered auspicious due to its various health benefits. The betel leaf is enjoyed amongst all sections of society, and has especially been patronised by the Royals of Lucknow. Shahi Paan, which was akin to Art rolled inside the auspicious Betel Leaf, had the paan makers of that time apply the best of their culinary expertise to create a gilauri that was worthy of the Deity of the temple, which later travelled to Royal courts. This gilauri was especially wrapped with hand beaten pure silver foil called Warq. Our Shahi Paan motif & the kalgi adorning atop it, is an homage to those Royal Beedas of the ancient past that are still in existence. POSHAAK (about the dress): Shahi Paan natural Tussar Silk kurta has a stunning statement back of Paan and Kalgi motif, all archival motifs, that can be seen displayed in National Crafts Museum, New Delhi. Although our motif is much bigger, as that is how hand carving happens now. Laced with very intricate detailing, the stunning motif on the back, is balanced by a beautifully minimal neckline & sleeve line. Jasmine flowers motifs adorn the front of the kurta, making it a regal & subtle piece that is perfect for Festivities & Weddings. The kurta is paired with Glazed Cotton pants in the same shade. It adds depth & character to classic Chikankari, & makes it a novelty, without taking away from the core essence of the craft. Additional Details: The Kurta is Made on Order only.

₹39,500.00

Swarna, or the one that is Gold! This Gold Zari Silk Kurta & Dupatta ensemble from Meiraas, is anointed with delicate Resham Chikankari. A statement in itself, not much, but subtle accessories are needed, after one wears this kurta. The Sustainability Quotient (TSQ): 1. Skilled Resham Hand Embroidery. 2. Novel motif art & layout created using hand carved motifs following all processes. 3. Handloom Zari Silk for Kurta 4. Conceptual Chikankari work, that might someday be housed in a museum of crafts, or a well researched coffee table book. KHAYAL (mood-board): 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 rest of the dupatta is embroidered with a very intricate miniature diskette shaped floral motif, which is further highlighted by Mukaish embroidery. 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. Swarna tunic, on the other hand, is made in Handloom Gold Zari Silk, with Resham Chikankari floral booti scattered in minimalist design mood board, as that is all this fabric needs to dress up. We wanted to create a more functional Kurti for the festive & wedding seasons, where one is running between events, & wants elegance and opulence, ready at their fingertips. Just add some well chosen diamonds or emeralds with this Kurti, for a rich and yet sublime look. There is a difference of shades in Swarna Ambi dupatta & Kurta. The dupatta is very light Gold, while the Kurta is Gold (please refer to the images). When worn together, they both complement each other very well, in giving a gradient effect. The pants should be made to match the Kurta. If you wish to add plain Glazed Cotton pants in same shade to match, you can select the same from Glazed Cotton Plain Pants and in Customer Note mention: Please make Pants to match the selected set.

The motif is a replica of Amer Fort, Jaipur Guldaan art done in Molten Glass in the original monument. This motif inspired us to create a range of Amer inspired Chikankari garments, as artfully, Amer Fort is one of the most beautiful forts we have seen so far. To add to this, Noir, is a series we had created a couple of years back, to celebrate a new dimension in Chikankari embroidery - the tone on tone dark. We started this process with Black, & since then have tried Moss Green, and now moving to explore Oxblood shade. This kind of Chikankari is the opposite of classic & ethereal White on White or pastel Tone on Tone. This is rich, decadent, sultry, elegant, mysterious & yet, stately. POSHAAK (about the dress): This rich Oxblood shade kurta has a beautiful ghaspatti bel neckline. It features an antique late 19th Century miniature flower vase motif, which also finds its parallel in Amer fort. This is why we picked this motif to go along with the grand Amer motif newly crafted by us. This motif is scattered on the sleeves and front of the Kurta, and the back has the grand Amer Vase motif, along with keel bootis. It is a beautiful, artful Kurta that is sure to turn heads and become a conversation starter.
