This ensemble is a contemporary take on traditional Indian craftsmanship, featuring a Lucknowi Chikankari lehenga set in a soft, ethereal palette.
The Blouse (Choli)
The sleeveless cropped blouse is rendered in a delicate blush pink base. It features intricate, tone-on-tone thread work and is accented with gold sequins and beadwork along the V-neckline. The highlight of the choli is the scalloped lace hemline, which provides a sheer, ornate transition to the midriff.
The Lehenga Skirt
The high-waisted, voluminous skirt is a masterpiece of multicolor pastel dyeing. Shades of mint green, lemon yellow, and peach meld together under heavy ivory Lakhnavi embroidery.
Artistry: The floral and paisley threadwork covers the entire flare, creating a rich, textured appearance.
Hemline: The bottom of the skirt is structured with multiple horizontal bands of antique gold gota patti and embroidery, finished with a heavy, scalloped gold border.
The Accents
Adding a playful, bohemian touch to the traditional silhouette is a long, braided latkan (tassel) hanging from the waist. It features oversized fabric rosettes and pom-poms in coordinating pastel shades of seafoam blue and dusty pink.
