The fine handloom dupattas of Tussar Silk

The appeal of handloom fabrics lies in the ethnic hand woven techniques employed to churn out fine, soft, transparent, airy, light and aesthestically appealing fabrics. The choice of vibrant colours, the use of organic dyes, the quality of weaving, the employment of limited resources; yet outcomes are a sensational mix with borders, designs, patterns, motifs, themes, hand painting and exquisite embroidery that even modern day methods fail to match. It is an amalgam or delightful blend of ethnic skill, care and devotion. The Dupatta, the scarf or the stole brought out as handloom fabrics woven with dedication and care are worthy additions.

The Dupatta - essential complement to the salwar kameez
No salwar suit is complete without the separate 2 m plus covering piece or the Dupatta. As accompaniment to the salwar suit, suitably adorned to match, as contrast or complement, the dupatta offers itself as backdrop for captivating patterns and motifs, canvas for exotic prints and abstract designs, lends suitable support for magical thread work or embroidery, allows breezy floral prints to infuse a new freshness in the surroundings.

An engaging fabric, one exquisite dupatta easily pairs well with different salwar kameez. Also known as chunni, the colourful dupatta has utilitarian functions also. It is used as a protective scarf in windy conditions, serves as a stole or shawl in cold weather, turns into a handy fabric for reverence when visiting a Gurudwara (sikh temple) or as a cover for the head in the presence of elders in the family or visitors. In passing it may be mentioned that this decorative fabric serves beyond its useful life as chunni by its aesthetic appeal as light colourful curtains in a house. Other similar uses can also be envisaged.

Western Idea translated for Indian conditions - the Indian long skirt

Brilliantly adapted from its original western counterpart, the Indian version of the skirt has gone down well with Indian women. Not restricted to a length close to the knees like the western skirt, the Indian skirt is a long flowing drape from waist downwards to just above feet level. Maybe it has more to do with the culture of the country; nevertheless it is seen as a dress or garment that suits almost any occasion.

Endearing features of the Indian skirt
Kalamkari or Qalamkari is hand painted or block printed textile. It is derived from the Persian ‘drawing with a pen’. There are two styles in India. One is based on themes of religious hangings, temple engravings, scrolls, deities, scenes from epics etc. The other based on Islam influence of the Mughals evolved with themes of flora, fauna and nature. The long skirt or more likely the popular skirt has been lapped up by the Indian market mainly for its qualities as a fabric that serves as attire suited to Indian conditions, as fashion apparel with a wide range of styles, as quality handloom clothing with a lot of variety that goes well with a lot of combining tops. Starting from the waist and ending with a flaring bottom at the feet, it holds promise for all ages of women to look graceful if not shapely, seem tall where lacking height could be socially discomforting, add appeal if looking tall be a welcome virtue.
Besides, the ease of movement and comfort as a dress, it allows the wearer to make a statement given the right combination or pairing top matched by appropriate accessories like stoles, belts, designer bags and footwear.
