Every woman should have that one statement Anarkali suit in her wardrobe. This style of Indian suits gained a following with the advent of Hindi films depicting Mughal court life (a name or two would come to the minds of all who have a thing for Indian cinema), and derive their name from the iconic nautch-girl who dared to love the prince. In ethnic fashion today they are typified by the accentuating bust, from which cascade volumes of floor-length skirts contained by the thick, red, richly embroidered hemline.

This gorgeous ballgown-esque Anarkali suit is just the thing to wear to parties and gatherings with a traditional spin. The dominant black colour sets the mood of the ensemble to one of reserved and overpowering elegance. The signature bust comprises of black meshwork over a fiery red, more of which is to be found in the embroidery on the full sleeves. Luxuriant patches of zardosi punctuate the ensemble at the waist, along the neckline, down the bust, and at the hems of the sleeves. Zoom in on the same to appreciate the beauty of the Persian-origin silverwork.
