The hook is worked through stretched fabric to pull the thread up in a continuous chain stitch, which is why aari work reads as flowing lines rather than separate stitches. It is the technique behind much of the fine chain-stitch embroidery associated with Kashmir and Gujarat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe chain-stitch line is what distinguishes it. Where satin stitch fills an area solidly and resham draws in loose strokes, aari builds an unbroken looping line that can turn corners and curve without stopping — which is why it suits vines, florals and outlines so well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBeige as a base for aari\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeige does something specific for work like this: it stays out of the way. On a strong colour, fine chain-stitch has to fight the ground to be seen, and much of the line is lost from any distance. On a neutral, the stitched line reads clearly — you see the shape of the work rather than just a texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt also means the suit is not tied to an occasion. The same stitched set carries from a family function to a Gurudwara Sahib visit to an office day, which a festive colour does not.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe fabrics\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe shirt and bottom are cotton — breathable and soft against the skin, and with enough body to hold aari work without puckering, which a very fine fabric would struggle to do. The dupatta is tabby, which is the name for a plain weave: threads crossing one over one, the simplest and sturdiest weave structure. It gives a smooth, even surface with slightly more body than the cotton, so the dupatta holds its fall on the shoulder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere to wear it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA daytime piece rather than an evening one. It suits a family lunch, a daytime function, a puja, a Gurudwara Sahib visit, a kitty party or an office festive day. The aari work lifts it enough for an occasion; the cotton keeps it wearable through a long one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eStitching this suit\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe suit is supplied unstitched, so the neckline, sleeve length and fit are yours to decide. It can be stitched up to size 5XL. Decide with your tailor before cutting where the aari work should fall on the finished shirt — it is fixed on the fabric, so the cut determines everything. StudioJazz offers a stitching service; share what you have in mind and we will discuss it with you. Unstitched orders are dispatched within 48 working hours; stitched orders take 7 to 15 working days depending on the work involved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDry clean only. Do not iron directly over the aari work. Aari is a chain stitch, which means a broken thread can run — keep the suit away from rough jewellery and velcro that could catch a loop, and have any pulled thread secured rather than trimmed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eShipping\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDispatched within 48 working hours of order confirmation and delivered across India in 3 to 7 business days.

Placement on your piece may differ slightly from the photographs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat is aari work?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAari is chain-stitch embroidery worked with a fine hooked needle pulled through stretched fabric. It produces continuous looping lines rather than separate stitches, which suits vines, florals and outlines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eHow is aari different from other embroidery?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSatin stitch fills an area solidly; resham draws in loose strokes. Aari builds an unbroken chain line that can curve and turn corners without stopping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat are the three pieces made of?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe shirt and bottom are cotton. The dupatta is tabby.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat does tabby mean?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTabby is the name for a plain weave — threads crossing one over one, the simplest and sturdiest weave structure. It gives a smooth, even surface with a little more body than a soft cotton.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat's included and how much fabric?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree pieces of 2.5 metres each — shirt, bottom and dupatta — 7.5 metres in total.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eIs this comfortable in warm weather?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe shirt and bottom are cotton and breathable. The tabby dupatta is light with a little more structure than the cotton.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhere will the aari work sit on my stitched suit?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat depends on how it is cut. The work is fixed on the fabric, so decide the placement with your tailor before cutting begins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eHow do I care for aari work?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDry clean only, and never iron directly over it. Because aari is a chain stitch, a broken thread can run — keep the suit away from anything that could catch a loop, and have a pulled thread secured rather than cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eCan this be stitched to my size?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt can be stitched up to size 5XL, and the neckline, sleeve length and fit are yours to choose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eDo you stitch it, and what does that cost?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, StudioJazz offers stitching. Charges depend on the design and the amount of work involved — message us and we will confirm the cost before you proceed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eDo you ship internationally?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStudioJazz has shipped to 13 countries.
