Brocade or Banarsi

A shuttle-woven fabric with raised floral patterns. Perfect for giving your dress an exquisite look. Banarsi sarees made this fabric a popular choice for traditional wear.

Jacquard

A soft and lustrous fabric with woven fibers. Damask and Brocade are the types of Jacquard. Jacquard is revered as the perfect choice for sarees, formal and bridal wear.

Damask

As exquisite as its name – Damask is rich in sheen with floral patterns woven into it. The intricate designs work perfectly to add traditional glam to your look.

Bridal Satin

Synthetic fibers woven tightly into a smooth fabric that gives off a luxurious shine.

Chiffon

A sheer and transparent fabric ideal for flowing designs like skirts and gowns. The soft feel and delicate look makes it the perfect choice for Nikkah dress.

Charmeuse

Lustrous and reflective – a lightweight fabric made of silk. Charmeuse speaks of classy perfection and drapes around with sheer grace.

Velvet

A heavy weight fabric that never goes out of style. With a soft feel and a subtle shine, velvet speaks of sheer grace and sophistication when used for blouses and kurtis.

Crushed Velvet

A thick fabric with nap pointing in different directions that gives it a crushed appearance. An ideal fabric for heavily embellished blouses.

Duchesse Silk

A blend of silk and synthetic fiber. With rich luster and femininity oozing off it, Dupioni silk is a fine choice for gowns that could be worn at Bridal showers.

Dupioni Silk

A silk fiber with a crisp touch and tiny nubs on the surface.

Faille

A thick fabric with ribbed texture. Faille is not exactly a popular choice for bridal wear but could be used as a support under a sheer fabric.

Georgette

A lightweight, dull-finished sheer fabric which is a popular choice among designers for bridal and formal wear. Provides a perfect base for tilla zari and embroidery.

Organza

Heavier and stiffer as compared to chiffon but more sheer, crisp and transparent. Organza works perfectly on wedding gowns. Organza wraps are still raging in the grand world of fashion.

Shantung

Thinner and less irregular than Dupioni, Shantung is extensively used for bridal wear. Its crisp texture will give your Gharara the perfect flare.

Tulle

Remember the fluffy princess tutus you wore as a kid? That was all the courtesy of this light netting and well your mom too! Tulle is perfect for adding flounce to your bridal gown. Tulle sleeves on even a simple Kurti will transform it into a chic piece of perfection.

Taffeta

Light to heavy fabric with a smooth surface and the shine that every bride deserves. Suitable for adding stiffness to the gowns.
