Wear a piece of living heritage with the Chikankari Embroidered Kurti by LucknowiChic. Celebrating the centuries-old art of Lucknowi Chikankari embroidery, this kurti brings the delicate beauty of handcrafted threadwork to your everyday and occasion wardrobe. Each piece features intricate shadow work, bakhiya, and phanda stitches that create a subtle, elegant texture — a hallmark of authentic Chikankari that has been cherished by women across generations.
Made from 100% pure cotton or fine cotton-muslin that provides a soft, luxurious feel against the skin. The Chikankari embroidery is done by skilled artisans using traditional techniques. Gentle hand wash recommended in cold water with mild detergent. Do not soak for extended periods. Do not wring or twist — gently squeeze out excess water. Dry flat in shade to prevent stretching. Iron on medium heat on reverse side to protect embroidery. Do not bleach or dry clean.
Perfect for daily wear, office, college, casual outings, high-tea, brunches, cultural events, art exhibitions, and semi-formal gatherings. The understated elegance of Chikankari makes it appropriate for almost any setting — from a morning pooja to an evening dinner. It is especially beloved for summer wear due to the lightweight, breathable fabric.
Pair with white or pastel palazzos for an elegant summer look. Style with straight jeans and juttis for a contemporary fusion outfit. A pearl necklace and pearl studs complement the delicate embroidery beautifully. For a more formal occasion, add a sheer organza dupatta with embroidered border. Soft, dewy makeup and loose waves complete the graceful Chikankari aesthetic.
