Anarkali Design

“Anarkali” is a dress like garment that consists of a frock that creates a flattering flowing silhouette.  Paired with a top (which can be made in various different materials), churidar – legging pants, and beautiful dupattas (scarf). There are three most prominent styles when it comes to Anarkali’s tops mentioned below.

A – Line Anarkali – “Kurti/Kurta” top has a narrower bodice and a flared skirt below the waist to give it the “A” fixture.

This is perfect for women with a well-defined waistline and broader hips.

Frock-Style Anarkali- Similar to that of the A-line Anarkali, this kurta stops at the knees with a lesser flair.

This is perfect for women with a straight body form to make them look flattering.

This is perfect for women with a well-defined waistline and broader hips.

Floor Length Anarkali – this outfit is the most feminine of all from our perspective and looks the most feminine and helps give women a fuller form of a more sculpted look

This is perfect for women with a well-defined waistline and broader hips.
