Traditional and classic dress.

Feminine and floaty Anarkali dress in stunning ANOKHI print with gold printed decorative finish.

Gold and silver printing as a decorative finish was a common feature in traditional Indian textiles and is still a popular way to embellish both printed and dyed fabrics. Using a brass stencil and plunger the motif is hand printed onto the cloth with a gum paste and dusted over with a cotton pouch. The powder adheres to the fabric wherever the paste is present.
