Chikankari Details
The design features floral and botanical motifs with fine Bakhiya-inspired detailing, delicate Phanda-style elements and small self-thread butis, creating a subtle textured base. The contrasting purple threadwork adds a contemporary touch to the traditional craft.
Pair it with relaxed white trousers or denims for an effortless daytime look, or layer it under a sheer kurta for a more elevated Indo-western ensemble. Add silver jhumkas and minimal accessories to let the purple embroidery stand out.
• Gentle Hand Wash Recommended: Wash separately in cold water using a mild detergent to preserve the delicate chikankari embroidery.
• Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use bleach or strong detergents, as they can damage the fabric and embroidery threads.
• Do Not Wring: Gently squeeze out excess water instead of twisting, to maintain the shape and prevent stress on the stitches.
• Dry in Shade: Air dry in a shaded area to retain the color and prevent fading. Avoid direct sunlight.
• Dry Clean (Optional): For long-lasting finish and special occasions, professional dry cleaning is recommended.
1. Dry Clean Recommended: To maintain the structural sheen of the Banarasi silk.
2. Storage: Store folded in a soft muslin bag or cool, dry cupboard. Avoid wire hangers.
3. Avoid Perfumes: Do not spray perfume directly — alcohol can react with metallic Banarasi zari.
- Each Elaiya garment is meticulously hand-embroidered, and subtle variations in motifs or stitch placement are a natural part of the craft, making every piece truly one of a kind.
- Please note that colours may appear slightly different due to lighting conditions during photography and individual screen display settings.
