Buy Best Chikankari Suits Online

Chikankari, which literally means embroidery finds its origins in the small lanes of Lucknow. Chikan is a very delicate artwork done by hand in various textiles like cotton, chiffon, muslin, organza, net, and silk. A design is block printed on the fabric and then the embroiderer stitches along the pattern with white thread usually on with pastel-coloured fabrics. In recent times chikankari work has adapted to include many embellishments like Badla, Kamdani, Mukaish, beads, sequins and mirror work.

Budget - Friendly Chikankari suits Prices

Chikankari suits and sarees are very popular throughout India and abroad and vary in prices according to the intricacy of the work. Many replicas like chikankari prints are also available in the market but nothing beats the original beauty of this handiwork. Meesho has an array of gorgeous original chikankari suits for you to pamper yourself.

Different types of stitches used in Chikankari Suits

Traditionally there were about 40 types of stitches that were used in chikankari suit designs, but in recent times, the following are most commonly used.

Tepchi

One of the simplest chikan stitches, Tepchi is a linear or darning stitch. It is done with six strands on the right side of the material which are taken over four threads while picking one up. This forms a line and is usually used to outline a motif in chikankari suits.

Bakhiya

This is also known as 'Shadow work'. In this method, the embroidery is done on the wrong side of the fabric and its shadow is seen on the right side of the chikankari suits.

Hool

This is an eyelet stitch and is finely detached. The artist punches a hole in the fabric and the threads are separated out. The hole is then stitched all around with tiny straight stitches with a single thread on the right side of the fabric. This stitch is usually used to make the centre of a flower.

Zanzeera

These are delicate and small chain stitches done with a single thread on the right side of the material. This stitch is generally used to enhance the outline of a petal or flower once the basic outline is done on the chikankari suits.

Rahet

Popularly known as ‘Dohra bakhiya’, this forms a solid line with back stitches on the right side of the fabric. This is also used to make outlines of the chikankari suit’s design.

Phanda

This is one of the most popular stitches used in chikan suits and sarees. It is usually used to make the centre of a flower in simpler designs. Phanda is a millet shaped stitch worked in loops.

Murri

The oldest and most common chikan stitch, the murri is just like the phanda and are French Knots in a rice shape. Murri is also used to fill in the centre of flowers in the chikankari suits motifs. There is a slow depletion of this style due to a decrease in the artisans doing the Murri embroidery.

Jali

In the jali stitch, the thread is not drawn through the fabric. This ensures that the back of the fabric looks as neat as the front. The weft and warp threads are carefully separated and minuscule buttonhole stitches are inserted into the chikankari suit’s material.

Turpai and Darzdari

These two stitches are an integral part of any chikankari suits design work. Turpai is a thin thread design while Darzdari comes in forms like Singbhada Darz, Kamal Darz, Kohi Darz, Shankarpara Darz etc.

Others

There are many other chikankari stitches but are not be so popular as these will increase the Chikankari suit prices. These are Banjkali, Makra, Kapkaki, Karan, Sazi, Bulbul-Chasm, Kauri, Madrazi, Taj Mahal, Keel Kangan, Chanapatti etc.
