The ulta-pulta t-shirt in Chikankari pays homage to this embroidery style from Uttar Pradesh.
The zippers at the shoulder and side seams of the t-shirt can be opened to separate its front and back panels, and the two pieces can be mixed and matched between the different types of t-shirts.
The two t-shirts that are part of this collection are the Chikankari T-shirt and the Patta Chaddar T-shirt. Both are double-layered t-shirts, lined with 100% cotton jersey and embellished with textile on the outer layer.
The first iteration is the Chikankari t-shirt, which has an outer layer of 100% georgette with Chikankari, an embroidery style from Uttar Pradesh.
The second iteration is the Patta Chaddar T-shirt, which has an outer layer of 100% cotton Bhagalpuri Chaddar that originates from Bihar. This is an ode to the versatility of the patta chaddar fabric, which is traditionally used for light towels and blankets.
The zippers at the shoulder and side seams of both t-shirts can be opened to separate the front and back panels of the t-shirts, and the two pieces can be mixed and matched between the two types of t-shirts.
