This beautiful kurta has intricate hand embroidery, a traditional art of Lucknow in India.

What Sets Apart the Pink Chikankari Kurta?

The Pink Chikankari Kurta is designed with embroidery in mind, and the beauty of this kurta lies in the process of making it. The pink fabric is acknowledged to convey a delicate and elegant feeling and is popular among women. The traditional craftsmanship is embodied in the art embroidery designs that are floral and geometric and hand-stitched to ensure that each kurta is distinct. 

This particular procedure involves hand-spinning and hand-weaving and could take as long as two weeks to complete, meaning that each kurta is unique and cannot be replicated. The fabric used is breathable, which could consist of cotton or a blend of it. 

The Process of Making a Pink Chikankari Kurta

Creating a Pink Chikankari Kurta requires a time-consuming process where skilled artisans follow the Chikan embroidery style. The following steps outline this intricate procedure.

1. Cutting

The first step of creating the kurta involves preparing the material by cutting the required fabric. Accuracy is crucial in this stage to attain a perfect interlocking fit which could vary based on the fabric that is used. 

2. Stitching

In the next stage, the garment is stitched to form the core structure of the stiffness and preliminary structure of the kurta. In this process, the shoulders, sides, and sleeves are sewn, such that a basic kurta is produced upon which the subsequent steps are carried out.

3. Block Printing

The fabric then goes through block printing, which entails using wooden blocks dipped in washable ink to stamp on the designs. The printed design is used as a guide to the hand embroidery, hence making it easier and more precise in the production of the patterns. 

4. Hand Embroidery

The core activity of Chikankari is hand embroidery and hand craftsmanship is given utmost importance. Images/patterns are embroidered into the fabric with high precision, employing standard sewing methods such as backstitch, chain stitch, and hem stitche. This step may take several weeks in case of developing a complex design. 

5. Washing

After the embroidery is done, the fabric is washed again to clear out the remaining sewing ink applied in the block printing process and to add softness to the threads. This washing also assists in ensuring that the Kurta stays long-lasting and is comfortable on the skin. 

6. Colouring

If necessary, the fabric is dyed until it possesses the characteristic pink tone. It entails placing the fabric under a dye bath and washing it until the colour sets before drying it.

7. Final Touches

Among the last steps in the making of the Pink Chikankari Kurta, one must ensure that there are no loose threads or any flaws. The fabrics are then modified where necessary to make them smooth and cleaned up to achieve neatness. This step is essential in checking and confirming the quality of the specific kurta.

8. Pressing

The final stage is ironing the kurta to give the final finishing touches as it adds to neatness and perfection. The garment is then ironed to ensure that there are no creases which may be covering the fabric or in the way of the design when on display or worn.
