At Paridha, we are deeply rooted in the belief that fashion is more than just clothing—it's an expression of heritage, culture, and individuality.

This collection is a tribute to India’s rich craftsmanship, reimagined for the contemporary woman who appreciates both tradition and innovation.

 

What is Chikankari?

Before diving into the details of our latest offerings, let’s take a moment to appreciate the beauty and history behind chikankari embroidery. Originating from the heart of Lucknow, this intricate hand-embroidery technique is known for its delicate and elegant white threadwork on lightweight fabrics like cotton, silk, and georgette. The art of chikankari dates back to the Mughal era and has since become a symbol of grace and sophistication in Indian fashion.

Chikankari is characterized by its variety of stitches, ranging from simple backstitches to more complex patterns like jaali, phanda, and keel. Each piece of chikankari work requires meticulous craftsmanship, making every garment unique and timeless.
