Design Details
A dusty pink and beige kora cotton kurta printed in a tonal rose block design, anchored by a chevron-embroidered yoke picked out in bead work. Mirror work is scattered across the kurta and dupatta, catching light as you move. The contrast dupatta layers chevron and floral printed borders in the same rose palette, and dusty rose trousers ground the set. The soft, faded pink is easy to wear and suits daytime functions, pujas and family occasions.

My Story
Mirror work - abhla bharat - travelled into Kutch and Rajasthan from Persia in the seventeenth century, when the discs were cut from mica and, later, from hand-blown glass spun into a dome and shattered into pieces. Because no two shards are the same, each mirror is caught in place by a ring of buttonhole stitches worked to fit it exactly, a small feat of hand-eye judgement repeated hundreds of times over one garment. It was never only decoration: in desert communities the mirrors were believed to turn away the evil eye by throwing a person’s own gaze back at them.
Wash and Care
Wash in cold water with a mild detergent, separately for the first two or three washes as natural dyes may bleed a little. Do not bleach or wring. Dry in the shade to keep the colour true, and press on a medium heat while slightly damp.
