Aalia | The Heritage Artisan Gown | Chikankari Famaza Couture
DESCRIPTION
Aalia | The Heritage Artisan Gown
The Soul of the Piece
The Aalia Gown is not merely a garment; it is a wearable masterpiece. Representing over 60 hours of meticulous hand-needlework, this gown is a tribute to the 400-year-old Persian-inspired art of Chikankari. Designed for the woman who seeks a connection to history through a modern silhouette, the Aalia is an investment in the vanishing world of "Slow Fashion."
The Artistry: The Ghaspatti Technique
Crafted by master artisans in Lucknow, the Aalia is defined by the Ghaspatti stitch—an intricate, V-shaped embroidery technique that creates delicate, grass-like textures.
The Hero
The human touch: A master artisan meticulously crafting the Ghaspatti motifs on your Aalia Gown
-
The Precision: Unlike broader stitches, Ghaspatti requires the artisan to maintain perfect tension to form tiny, pointed leaves and floral motifs.
-
The Texture: This specific needlework creates a raised, tactile surface that catches the light beautifully, giving the gown a three-dimensional depth.
-
The Fabric: Tailored from our Premium High-Twist Rayon. Selected for its remarkable cooling properties and silk-like luster, this fabric offers a heavy, liquid drape that resists creasing—making it the ideal companion for the humidity of Dubai or a summer evening in the Hamptons.
Functional Luxury
True luxury is effortless. We have integrated seamless, deep-set pockets into the Aalia’s silhouette, providing modern utility without disrupting the gown's sculptural flow. It is the rare couture piece that prioritizes both your comfort and your presence.
