Details

Georgette is known for a fluid, softly textured fall, and chikankari is a needlework tradition associated with Lucknow. Together they make a piece where the fabric and the handwork both have something to say. The photographs on this page show the colour, the placement of the work and the finishing in detail. Georgette suits occasions where you will be on your feet and moving: daytime celebrations, festive lunches, family gatherings and dinners. Chikankari tends to read as refined rather than loud, so this piece can be dressed up with statement jewelry or kept understated with something simple. Georgette and fine embroidery both call for a gentle hand. Keep the piece away from rough surfaces, rings and jewelry with sharp edges that could catch the threads. Check the garment label for care instructions before cleaning, and consider a professional cleaner if you are unsure.
