For those of you using a 44-inch wide fabric, this guide suggests measurements for a standard L Size. Think of this as your starting point. If you're working with different sizes or fabric widths, just adjust up or down accordingly. Hope this helps!
When it comes to how much fabric you'll need, it really depends on the design. We'd recommend having a chat with your designer or tailor before you order, just to be on the safe side.

How will my order be packed?
Every order includes a handwritten note and a small surprise gift from us. Your product is wrapped carefully to reach you safe. We've done this since day one.
How do I pick the right size for kurtas?
Every product page has a size chart with bust, waist, hip, and length measurements in inches and centimetres. Measure a garment that fits you well and compare with our chart.
Is this ready to wear or do I need to get it stitched?
Our kurtas are ready to wear unless the listing says 'unstitched.' Stitched pieces ship as-is. Unstitched pieces need a tailor. we include measurement guidance where needed.
What is the fit like. loose, regular, or slim?
The fit type is noted on every product page. Most of our kurtas have a relaxed, comfortable fit. If you prefer a closer fit, consider going one size down.
Can I machine wash this?
We recommend hand washing for the first 2-3 washes. After that, gentle machine wash works for most cotton and blended kurtas. Silk and embroidered pieces need hand wash only.
Will this work for office wear?
Solid-colour cotton or linen kurtas with minimal embellishment work well for offices. Pair with straight pants for a professional look. Heavily embroidered ones suit festive occasions.
What is Chikankari embroidery?
Chikankari is a white-on-white hand embroidery from Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, dating back to the Mughal era. It uses 36 types of stitches to create floral motifs on fine cotton or muslin. GI tagged.
How long does Chikankari embroidery take?
The block printer first stamps the pattern on fabric. The embroiderer then follows the printed outline using one of 36 recognized stitches. After completion, the block print is washed away, leaving only the embroidery.
How can I tell if the embroidery is hand-done?
Hand embroidery has a slightly irregular stitch pattern on the reverse side. Machine embroidery shows perfectly uniform stitches. The texture and depth of hand stitching is visibly different.
Will the threads pull or snag during use?
Handle embroidered areas gently. Avoid rubbing against rough surfaces. If a thread catches, don't pull. push it back gently with a needle. Proper care keeps the embroidery intact for years.
How do I wash embroidered products?
Turn inside out and hand wash in cold water. Do not wring or scrub the embroidered area. Press gently with a towel to remove water. Iron on the reverse side at low heat.
What does Georgette feel like?
Georgette has a slightly rough, grainy texture with a flowing drape. It feels lightweight and airy. The crinkled surface gives it grip, so it stays in place when draped.
How do I wash Georgette products?
Hand wash in cold water or use a gentle machine cycle. Georgette dries quickly and doesn't wrinkle much. Avoid high heat while ironing. use low to medium settings.
Is Georgette suitable for hot weather?
Georgette is light and airy, making it comfortable in warm conditions. It doesn't cling to the body. For peak summer, pair it with loose silhouettes for maximum comfort.
How durable is Georgette?
Georgette holds its shape well over time. It resists shrinking and stretching. The fabric is easy to maintain and keeps its drape through multiple washes with basic care.
Does Georgette wrinkle easily?
Georgette is naturally wrinkle-resistant compared to cotton and silk. Light steaming or low-heat ironing removes any creases. It travels well and looks put-together with minimal effort.
