Dupattas that lift a plain suit. The set has a phulkari dupatta with dense floral embroidery, a bandhani in red and yellow, and a banarasi with a gold border. Each is draped on a wooden stand so its length and border show, beside a plain solid cotton suit, and in close detail on the handwork. Type a change, such as chikankari or bridal red, and the picture follows it; the result is a request, not a promise.

Frequently asked questions

What are phulkari, bandhani and banarasi?
Phulkari is Punjabi floral embroidery, bandhani is tie-dyed cloth with dot patterns, and banarasi is a silk with woven motifs from Varanasi.
Does the picture show the dupatta on a person?
No. It is draped on a wooden stand, or hung beside a plain suit.
Can I ask for a different colour or fabric?
Yes. Type it, such as chikankari. The picture is generated from your words and is not guaranteed.
Which view shows the weave?
The close detail view fills the frame with the border and handwork, so the weave and dye are easiest to see.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
