Take it from the queen of saree how to drape elegance at its best. She wore a flawless drape of traditional Kashmiri textile of jamewar shawls. Designed by Tarun Tahiliani, the ensemble was crafted over 1900 hours, seamlessly combines classic aari work with intricate French knots. She paired with a modern tapered collared blouse.

“To achieve its flawless drape and texture, craftsmen embroidered heritage jamewar shawls, which were then meticulously hand-painted, printed, and further embroidered. The result is a refined interplay of heritage artistry and modern tailoring,” writes the designer.

The borders and cutwork exude a sense of royalty. For glam picks, Nita Ambani opted for her usual elegant choice glossy lip colour, mascara, kohl-ed eyed and simple black bindi. She elevated the look with a statement chandbali style diamond and pearl earrings. A beautiful jewelled bracelet adorns her writs effortlessly. This time, she let her loose wavy hair cascade over the shoulders.

About Jamawar Fabric

Jama means ‘robe’ and war means ‘yard’. This is a traditional textile from Kashmir usually made from the exquisite pashmina wool. There is a strong dominance of floral motifs. Due to its rich and fine raw material, it had often been a commonplace for the novelty and royal class. Weavers were commissioned specially for shawls and robe designs and, reportedly, some of the garments often took almost a decade to finish.
