Kurta embroidery designs: chikan, festive silk, Kashmiri aari

Kurta embroidery designs — a men's white cotton kurta with Lucknowi chikankari down the long placket, a jaali net of open stitches between paisley vines and white thread on white, photographed in a stone courtyard hung with marigold strings for a celebration, warm late daylight from camera-left, the tonal balance warm and rich with soft shadows under the arches

A kurta is chosen by its collar, placket and yoke, so these pictures keep those in view. Three designs: a men's Lucknowi chikan kurta, a men's ivory silk kurta with resham work for a wedding, and a ladies' kurta with Kashmiri aari flowers on the yoke. Each is on a dress form, with no wearer. Type an occasion or a colour as a direction, such as for Eid or in black.

Frequently asked questions

Can I ask for a kids kurta or a different occasion?
Yes. Type the change as a direction, such as kids kurta or for Eid. The nine pictures are the nine shown; a typed direction is a request for a new picture, not a promised result.
What is the difference between the courtyard and the plain wall?
The courtyard hangs the kurta among marigold strings in warm late light, for a celebration. The plain wall shows the same kind of kurta against off-white, with the placket on the centre line.
Are the designs for men or for women?
Both. The set has a men's chikan kurta, a men's silk kurta and a ladies' aari kurta, so the collar and yoke show the work for either.

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.
