The word itself means \"that which hangs at the back.\" Its imagery is drawn from the life of Krishna in Vrindavan, and the cow is one of its central subjects — Krishna was raised among cowherds, and the cows of Vrindavan appear throughout pichwai painting as figures of devotion rather than decoration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThat is the tradition this print draws from. The design here is printed onto the fabric, not hand-painted — but the cow motifs carry a meaning that a general floral print does not, which is why a pichwai piece tends to be chosen deliberately rather than picked off a rail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Chanderi\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChanderi is a fine, lightweight fabric known for its slight translucency and its soft, subtle sheen — light passes through it in a way heavier fabrics do not. It is comfortable in warm weather, drapes softly rather than holding a stiff shape, and takes a print cleanly, which is why it suits detailed motif work like this one. The bottom is santoon, a soft, smooth fabric that gives the stitched salwar or trouser an easy fall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere to wear it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe devotional origin of the print makes this a natural choice for a Gurudwara Sahib visit, a path or kirtan, a temple visit, a puja at home, or Janmashtami. It works equally as an unfussy festive suit for a family lunch, a daytime function or a kitty party. Grey keeps it understated — the print is the detail that draws the eye, not the colour.\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. Chanderi is slightly sheer, so a lining is worth discussing with your tailor. With a motif print like this one, also decide before cutting where you want the cows to fall on the finished shirt — a placement print rewards a little planning. 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. Chanderi is a fine fabric and the print is best protected from direct sunlight, so dry and store in shade.\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.
