Designer Kurtis with Popular Hand Work

The product label and the graphics used on them distinguish designer Kurtis from standard printed ones. These kurtis were created entirely by the creator and feature craftsmanship and techniques that are rarely seen in mass-produced items. Designer kurtis have a distinct style and feel, hence they command a higher price than regular kurtis.

Designer kurtis typically have a lot of embroidery and handwork, and some even use beads, sequins, mirrors, Patta, and zari work. They have a high-end appearance and are intended for special occasions. You can, however, choose a plain design from a glitzy range for everyday usage.

To make their Kurtis look unique, most designers use a variety of stitches. The following is a list of popular handwork found in designer kurtis:

Stitch Kantha

West Bengali needlework is known as Kantha Stitch. Running stitches are typically used to create a design or pattern. The Kantha Stitch is typically used to make floral designs, but designers are now experimenting with people and fauna for their kurtis. Cotton threads are commonly used in the Kantha stitch. Cotton is the most common foundation material for Kantha stitch, however raw silk or tussar may also be used in some situations. These stitches are usually extremely simple and do not require the use of beads or sequins.

Stitching in Chains

The Kashmiri chain stitch is well-known, and it’s most commonly seen on shawls and salwar suits. The chain stitch is a simple style of stitching that may be used to make a variety of unique designs. The stitch involves the use of colourful threads, which are wound over the needle’s head and then pushed through during stitching. This stitch can be used to construct a variety of motifs as well as fill in the outlines of various designs.

Dull Stitch

The dull stitch can be used to make a variety of motifs. Although this stitching pattern is commonly employed in Kashmiri patterns, designers have begun to use it. These stitches are utilized in kurtis as well as other Indian clothing like long kurtis and tops.

Ari Work

These stitches are commonly used to fill in gaps in various designs. The Ari design is quite similar to the kantha stitch, however the stitches are shorter in length. Ari art is great for floral patterns and figures.
