Fabric & Care

Made to Wear Every Day

The fabric

Soft cotton and poly-cotton — breathable and light, ideal for Indian summers and daily wear. The weave holds the embroidery neatly without feeling heavy.

Caring for it

  • Cold hand wash, separately for the first wash
  • Mild detergent — no bleach, no harsh soaking
  • Do not wring; press out water gently
  • Dry in shade to keep colours fresh
  • Low iron on the reverse, avoiding the embroidery

Aari-style (Machine)

Flowing hooked-needle chain-stitch motifs — reproduced here in neat, consistent machine threadwork at an everyday price.

Traditional

Crewel

A bolder chain stitch worked in wool thread, giving raised, textured motifs.

Styling

How to Style a Kashmiri Kurti

Everyday & office

A Kashmiri kurti is easy, modest ethnic wear for daily life — the embroidered yoke does the work, so the rest can stay simple.

  • Short kurti — with jeans, leggings or cigarette pants
  • Long kurti — with palazzos or straight pants for office and daily wear
  • Layered — over a slip or with a light stole in cooler weather

Festive & occasion

Dress the same kurti up for festivals, pujas and as wedding-guest wear — an easy Indo-Western look with minimal effort.

  • Festive — with juttis, jhumkas and a bindi
  • Guest wear — palazzo or sharara for a dressier line
  • Casual — flats and a tote for brunch or travel
Guide

What Is a Kashmiri Kurti?

A kurti is a tunic worn over trousers; a Kashmiri kurti carries the floral embroidery motifs Kashmir is known for — most recognisably the Aari style, a flowing, hooked-needle chain stitch that traces vines and blossoms across the neckline and yoke. (Kashmir's other famous styles are Sozni, a fine flat needlework, and Crewel, a bolder wool-thread chain stitch.)

The kurtis in this collection reproduce those Aari-style Kashmiri motifs in neat machine threadwork — consistent, durable and priced for everyday wear rather than the cost of a hand-worked piece. What makes them Kashmiri is the design and the origin: patterns from the valley, fabric finished here, dispatched from Pampore.

The Real Hand Piece

One kurti is genuinely hand-embroidered

If you want true Kashmiri handwork, we have a single hand-worked Sozni piece — the Rose Peach long kurti — embroidered by hand in fine needlework and priced very differently from the machine-embroidered range. Everything else here is honestly labelled machine embroidery.

Made & shipped from Kashmir

Fabric chosen and finished in the valley, embroidered in Kashmiri Aari-style motifs and dispatched from Pampore with a GST invoice on every order. No middlemen.

Described exactly as it is

Machine threadwork is called machine threadwork; cotton and poly-cotton are named as they are. The one genuine hand piece is flagged as hand-worked. No inflated claims — that's the whole idea.

Questions People Ask Us

Is the embroidery hand-done or machine-made?

Machine, across this collection — neat, consistent Aari-style threadwork at an everyday price. The one exception is our hand-worked Sozni Rose Peach long kurti, which is clearly labelled as hand-embroidered.

How do I pick my size?

The size number is your to-fit bust in inches — so size 40 fits a 40-inch bust. Pick the closest number to your bust; if you're between sizes, size up for a relaxed fit. Exact measurements are on each product page, or ask us on WhatsApp.

What's the difference between Aari and Crewel work?

Both use a hooked needle and chain stitch. Aari is finer, worked in cotton or silk thread for delicate florals; Crewel is bolder, worked in wool thread. Our kurtis carry Aari-style motifs reproduced in machine threadwork.

What fabric are the kurtis?

Cotton and poly-cotton — soft, breathable and skin-friendly, cut for everyday comfort.

How long does delivery take?

Orders ship from Pampore across India, with free shipping over ₹299 and a GST invoice. Delivery time depends on your location — message us on WhatsApp and we'll confirm.

Can I return or exchange?

Yes, as per our refund policy. If anything isn't right, message us on WhatsApp and we'll sort it out.

What makes them Kashmiri?

The motifs and the origin — Kashmiri floral designs, fabric finished here, shipped from Pampore with a GST invoice.

The colour I want is sold out — now what?
