Jamawar Farshi lehenga with a tissue silk shirt
The shirt has a boat neckline in a dense frame, deep cuffs on its full sleeves and a round back. Sprigs, vines and paisley shapes cover it down to a worked border at its hem. Below, the Jamawar Farshi lehenga is joined in panels, set on an attached cancan and drawn back into the trail. Broad patterned bands in orange and gold end in a darker red gathered edge near the floor. The organza dupatta is scattered with motifs inside a very wide scalloped cutwork border of large paisley and medallion shapes. All of it is silk lined, and it weighs around 10 kg.
Chinar red, turning orange
Late in autumn, a chinar turns from the top down. Deep red holds in the high branches while orange and gold gather beneath, and then on the ground. This red and orange Farshi lehenga keeps the same order.
Because the shirt falls so far, its deep red becomes the main mass of the outfit. The band that closes the shirt shuts off the finer work above and passes the eye down to the lehenga, where orange and gold show most. The trail then takes them out across the floor like fallen leaves.
Antique gold, copper, bronze and silver all appear in the embroidery, and the beads and sequins take more light than the ground they sit on. It is a warm, weighty dress, and its brightest colour stays low.
The Baraat, and the days around it
The trail and the depth of red make this a Baraat piece first, one of the Baraat dresses, and the orange lightens it enough for a Walima, or even the Nikkah. Deep reds of other kinds fill the red and maroon bridal lehengas. The red Farshi lehenga in chiffon and tissue silk drops the orange for silver accents, with a scoop neck and a circular full ghera. In the photographs, the gold-toned choker, necklaces, chandbalis, tikka and bangles are props. Since the boat neckline has its own frame of work, antique-gold jhumkas and a pearl-drop tikka would do, with no necklace.

Sizing & Measurements
Choose a standard size, or select Customised Size and we stitch to your own measurements at no extra cost.
Your size or measurement details are provided before checkout is completed, which is why production can begin the day after you order. If a measurement is unclear, send it to us on WhatsApp before you submit it and our team will confirm it with you.
Care
- Always put paper between the layers when you fold it away. Kora, dabka and nakshi are metallic wire, and the fabric underneath them is fine. Every time the outfit is opened or folded, a stitch on one layer can catch the layer pressed against it and tear through it. A sheet of tissue or plain paper between the layers keeps the wire work away from the cloth, and it costs nothing. Use plain paper rather than newspaper on pale or ivory fabrics, because newsprint ink can mark them.
- Store it folded, not hanging. A heavily worked outfit is heavy, and months on a hanger pull the weight onto the shoulder seams.
- Dry clean only. Hand and machine washing damages metallic embroidery. Tell your cleaner the outfit carries zardozi, dabka or similar metallic handwork so it is cleaned by hand rather than by machine.
- Keep it away from direct sunlight and damp. Perfume and hairspray go on before the outfit, not after.
Questions About This Outfit
Can the design be customised?
Yes. Most customers ask for the design to be made a little more modest — higher neckline, longer or fuller sleeves, more coverage at the back, a longer shirt. Tell us what you want changed on WhatsApp before you order so the pattern is cut correctly the first time. Colour, embroidery colour, sleeves, neckline and length are all adjustable on most designs.
Will the dress look exactly like the photographs?
It will be very close, and we do not compromise on the embroidery or the fabric. Two honest exceptions: the colour shade can look slightly different because of studio lighting and your screen, and because every customer's height and body type is different, a pattern may need to be adjusted so the design sits correctly on you — on a shorter frame, for example, part of the shirt pattern may have to be re-cut. Ask for the final video before dispatch and you will see the actual garment before it ships.
Can I return or exchange it after delivery?
No. Every outfit is cut and stitched for one customer, so it cannot be resold or swapped for another size. That is exactly why the review happens before dispatch: ask for progress photographs and video at any stage, and for the complete final video before your order ships. An order can still be cancelled before dispatch — the windows and deductions are set out in our return policy.
Is there any extra cost on top of the price shown?
No hidden charges. The price you see is the price of the outfit. The only additions are the ones you choose yourself: Rush or Super Rush delivery, and any paid add-ons such as jewellery. Each is priced clearly before you pay.
Can I get matching jewellery with this outfit?
Yes. Matching earrings, necklace and related pieces are available as paid add-ons on this product — select them before you add the outfit to your basket and they are made and shipped with the same order.
Can I get a matching hijab or an extra dupatta?
Yes. Both are possible. Message us on WhatsApp when you place your order and we will tell you exactly how to arrange it.
Is Rush or Super Rush delivery available for this outfit?
Yes, on bridal and groom wear. The Estimated Delivery Timeline box near the top of this page shows live dates for Free, Rush and Super Rush against today's date, so it is always accurate for your order.
