Chikankari has evolved far beyond its traditional roots! Once known for its delicate embroidery on voiles, mulmuls, and pastel shades, today’s Chikankari embraces a wider palette and richer fabrics. Georgettes, Tussars, and silks now steal the show, adding a modern twist to this age-old craft.
But innovation comes at a cost. While Chikankari now dazzles with zardozi, crystals, and fusion embroidery, mass production has led to compromised quality, thoughtless designs, and fewer traditional stitches. The rising demand is both a blessing and a challenge—preserving the authentic elegance of Chikankari is more important than ever!
