Q1: What fabric is used in the Aardhya Red Chikankari Kurti, and why is it a good choice?

Q2: Is the embroidery on this kurti machine-made or handcrafted?

Q5: Does it come with bottoms or dupatta?
A5: No, this product includes only the kurti. However, it pairs beautifully with white embroidered palazzos, leggings, or straight pants, allowing you to style it your way.
Q6: How should I wash or care for this kurti to preserve its look?
A6: It’s best to dry clean or gently hand wash the kurti in cold water to preserve both the delicate embroidery and the soft rayon fabric. Avoid harsh detergents and wringing. Always dry in shade to prevent fading.
Q7: Is this suitable for sensitive skin?
A7: Yes. Rayon is naturally soft and breathable, and the hand embroidery uses skin-friendly threads, making the kurti suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin.

Q9: How do I style this kurti for a complete look?
A9: For a festive or formal look, pair it with white palazzos, silver jhumkas, and kolhapuris or embellished juttis. For a casual vibe, opt for churidars or cigarette pants with a nude bag and sandals. A light dupatta or oxidized choker can add a dramatic touch.
