Chikan Embroidered Lehnga

A common denominator among women of all social strata in India is wearing stunning chikan embroidered lehengas to social functions.

Tribal or royal, every girl deserves a marvelous party dress, if not a chikan embroidered lehenga, to bring out the best in her.

Of all people, blushing brides can never go wrong with a chikan embroidered lehenga, the garment of choice when the day of marriage is at hand.

When embellished with glimmering mirror work, chikan embroidered lehengas make for unforgettable wedding days.

In nay case, a lehenga is basically a long skirt that reaches the ankles or lower. That said, the wearer has a choice from a barrage of styles, such as fish-tail lehengas, mermaid lehengas, paneled lehengas, Kali lehengas and A-line lehengas.

It is one thing to have a lehenga, another to have a chikan embroidered lehenga. Chikan embroidery work is unmistakable with its telltale ubiquities of white thread, usually of cotton or silk. These are embroidered unto cool, pastel shades of mostly cotton garments.

Chikankari embroidery is also done on lehengas with fabrics of mulls, muslins, voiles, organzas, polyester, chiffon, viscose, georgette, polyester georgette, and net. Designs are selected in accordance with the chosen fabric.

These patterns are carefully engraved on a wooden block, before they are dipped in dyes like neel and safeda to make patterns. In turn, the designs and patterns steer the stitches, which number a multitude in the art that is chikankari.

Stretched by a wooden frame or Karchop, the printed cloth is then readied for the embroidery. As in other chikankari products, a chikan embroidered lehenga may make use of the plethora of basic stitches of the chikankari style of embroidering.

Tepchi is one such stitch common in chikan embroidered lehengas, along with legendary stitching staples like Bakhiya, Hool, Zanzeera, Rahet, Jali, Turpai, Darzdari Khatau, Phanda and Murri.

One stitch, Banarsi, is endemic to India alone and has no peer whatsoever in Europe.
