Description
Kashmir embroidery wrap
clothes stole scarves have unique charm. Floral patterns
in multi color are embroidered on solid color wool
fabric. This makes the stole scarf very colorful, yet
never too loud. Thus aesthetically, these are perhaps
the finest looking stole scarf made in India. Women of
all ages, young and old, love to wear them.
The Kashmir valley, a natural paradise full of flowers
and maple trees, produces the best hand embroidery work
in India. The artisans draw inspirations from the
beautiful nature around. The 'boteh' (flower) or 'ambia'
(mango) motifs are the most favored one of the Kashmir
designers. The colors used are those of the flowers of
the valley. An emphasis on pastel shades on a white
background is always preferred. Fine embroidery work is
done in shades discreetly blending with the background
shades. Looking beyond their own liking and preferences,
the craftsmen very often use bright and dark shades both
as a background and as embroidery colors. Very few
stitches are used. Sometimes the entire scarf is
embroidered in one single stitch. Very seldom one finds
a combination of more than two embroidery styles on one
object. The stitches are so typical of the region that
they are frequently termed as the 'Kashmiri Stitch'.
Kashmiri embroidery is therefore remarkable for the
skilled execution of a single stitch rather than the
elaborate quality of the stitch itself. Chain stitch,
satin stitch, the slanted darn stitch, stem, herringbone
or sometimes the ‘doori’ or knot stitches are used. The
excellence of the needlework is most remarkable in the
creation of a ‘dorukha’ or a double-sided scraf. In this
scarf, there is no right and wrong side. The same design
is produced in different colors on both sides.

Sari
A sari / saree is the traditional female garment in
India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal and Sri Lanka. A sari
is a very long strip of unstitched cloth, ranging from
four to nine metres in length, which can be draped in
various styles. The most common style is for the sari to
be wrapped around the waist, with one end then draped
over the shoulder baring the midriff. The sari is
usually worn over a petticoat (pavada/pavadai in the
south, and shaya in eastern India), with a blouse known
as a esrf026 or ravika forming the upper garment. The
esrf026 has short sleeves and a low neck and is usually
cropped, and as such is particularly well-suited for
wear in the sultry South Asian summers. esrf026s may be
"backless" or of a halter neck style. These are usually
more dressy with a lot of embellishments such as mirrors
or embroidery and may be worn on special occasions.Women
in the armed forces, when wearing a sari uniform, don a
half-sleeve shirt tucked in at the waist.
Salwar kameez and dupatta
The salwar kameez is another form of popular dress for
females. It consists of loose trousers (the salwar)
topped by a long loose shirt (the kameez). It originates
from the state of Punjab in India, but now has become
popular all across India, and other South Asian
countries. It is commonly worn with a narrow scarf
called a dupatta, which can be used to cover the head,
or just draped over the shoulders. The salwar kameez is
most common in the northwestern part of India.
Lehenga, esrf026, and odhani
The women of Rajasthan and Gujarat often wear colorful
swirling skirts called lehenga, paired with a short
bodice called a esrf026. If they must cover their heads,
they do so with bright veils called odhani.
Tribal styles
Tribal styles vary greatly, but usually correspond with
the same styles as salwaar kameez, esrf026, and other
Indian dress.
Men's clothing
The most common male attire consists of the dhoti and
kurta, worn in most of the western and central regions.
A sherwani is typically worn for special occasions. Men
of northern India and the Punjab may also wear salwar
kameez, often in plain white cotton, and top the kameez
with a dark waistcoat. The lungi (a type of wrap-around)
is worn in many parts of India, but depending on the
social practices of the region it may be restricted to
indoor-wear.
