Light Peach Cotton by Mulberry Silk traditional Mekhla Chadar . 

This is a genuine handloom product from our looms in Assam, India.

The Mekhla and Chador is a  traditional 2 piece dress from the North East State of Assam, India . The Mekhla is appx 45" length and 36" width when stitched . It is worn as a skirt over the petticoat .  The skirt  will have pleats when worn. The top part or 'chadar ' is a shawl or half -sari which is used to cover the upper portion of the body and is worn on top of the mekhla or wrap. The usual size is 3 Meters long and about 36 inches in width.

The  fabric is very soft and very easy to handle and care for.  These sets are very light and meant for casual day wear or for semi formal occasions . 

Due to the presence of Mulberry silk , there is a very subtle sheen to the fabric . The mulberry silk that is used here is raw mulberry silk  known colloquially locally as ' Kesa Pat '.  The presence of raw silk gives the set the translucent effect. 

The mekhla chadar comes with a blouse piece with borders.
