about the piece,

Description

There is a quietness to this kaftan that feels almost like early morning light settling over a valley. Worked by artisans from Kashmir, the Aari embroidery here follows a needle-hooking tradition that has moved through the hands of generations in the Kashmir Valley, coaxing silk thread into delicate floral motifs with a precision that no loom can replicate. The ground fabric is georgette, chosen for the way it holds a whisper of translucency, catching and releasing light as the wearer moves. The peach-dust colorway sits at that soft threshold between blush and bare, a tone that flatters without insisting upon itself. Together, the gauzy fall of the fabric and the hand-worked flowers create something that reads as both effortless and deeply considered, suitable for festive afternoons, intimate celebrations, or the kind of gathering where dressing thoughtfully is itself a form of conversation. Layer it over straight ivory or cream separates for a quietly layered look, or wear it alone as a full silhouette with flat kolhapuris and minimal silver jewellery from Rajasthan.

the story,

Behind this piece

Aari embroidery takes its name from the hooked needle, the aari, that Kashmiri craftsmen have wielded for centuries across the valley's storied ateliers. Unlike the counted-thread discipline of Kashmiri sozni, aari work moves in continuous chain stitches across the fabric's surface, allowing the needle to follow the natural curve of a petal or tendril with remarkable fluency. Here, on gossamer peach-dust georgette, those flowers bloom with the unhurried confidence of a craft that has dressed royalty and refined households alike for generations. Each motif is placed by hand, guided by eye and memory rather than mechanical repetition.

to wear it,

How to style

Wear the kaftan over slim ivory palazzo trousers for a languid summer lunch, grounding the diaphanous volume with something clean beneath. For an evening gathering, layer it over a silk slip in champagne and add uncut polki drops and block-heeled kolhapuris in nude leather. As a standalone cover for a beach or poolside wedding in Goa or Kerala, tie a hand-knotted macramé belt loosely at the waist and choose flat Kolhapuri chappals in tan. The peach-dust tone flatters warm, wheatish and deeper skin tones with equal generosity across all three occasions.

Fabric & care

Georgette is a crepe-weave fabric, typically of silk or synthetic origin, that loses body and lustre when handled carelessly. Hand-wash in cool water with a mild, pH-neutral detergent, supporting the full weight of the wet fabric to prevent distortion at the seams. Do not wring or twist. Roll gently in a clean cotton towel to absorb excess moisture, then hang in shade to dry. Press on a low heat setting through a pressing cloth, never directly. Store folded in soft muslin, away from direct light, to protect both the embroidery threads and the delicate ground fabric.

Frequently asked

Each piece is hand-loomed by artisan clusters we work with directly across India. Small irregularities in the weave are the hallmark of handloom — not a defect.
