Regal Yet Refined: The minimalist ivory shade enhanced by delicate chikankari embroidery strikes the perfect balance between dignified charm and modern grace.

Closure: Front placket with fabric-covered buttons blends seamlessly with the embroidery, creating a clean, uninterrupted finish.

Accents: Subtle side slits add ease of movement, while a welted chest pocket offers room for a pocket square.

Colour Palette
Primary Shade: Elegant ivory or soft cream, a shade that exudes sophistication and blends harmoniously with ornate embellishment.

Embroidered Threads: White-on-white chikankari hand embroidery lends a refined tone-on-tone sophistication that glistens under light.

Fabric & Embellishment
Base Fabric: Light yet luxurious art silk or silk-blend (e.g. chanderi or cotton-silk), selected for its refined texture, natural drape, and sheer suitability for chikankari work 

Embroidery Technique:

Chikankari: Traditional Lucknowi embroidery using techniques like bakhia, murri, and jaali to create intricate floral and vine motifs — showcased across the collar, chest panel, cuffs, and sleeve. This harkens back to the storied craft introduced during the Mughal era

Hand-stitched Detailing: Each stitch showcases artisanal skill, often shadow-stitched from the reverse to achieve depth and light.

Additional Accents: On select designs, faint pearl or dore embellishments are delicately hand-embroidered into motifs, lending a muted shimmer to highlight necklines and sleeve edges.

Inner lining crafted from soft cotton or luxe satin ensures comfort and ease of wear while maintaining silhouette integrity.
