## The Editor's Note
The Mehtab Maxi is a study in quiet opulence, delivering a truly regal presence without overwhelming shimmer. Crafted in a refined, earthy Gold hue, the floor-length maxi silhouette is the definition of sophistication for grand events, from formal party wear to significant dinners. The Organza base creates a weightless Drape, allowing the intricate embroidery to appear sculpted against the fabric. This ensemble achieves true Heirloom Quality through our Unbranded luxury model, giving the rational buyer Factory-Direct access to elite craftsmanship.
For the discerning client in the UK, USA, Australia, or Canada, the Mehtab offers Designer quality without the label. The base fabric is a lightweight, high-grade Organza for the flowing maxi, paired with structured silk trousers for comfort. This piece, sourced from the Mochi Gate ateliers, involves an estimated 150 hours of meticulous Hand-embellished work. The exquisite Gold color shown is available as Ready to ship Pakistani formal wear, or you may customise it in any of our 35 Custom Colors. Secure this globally-relevant piece with the assurance of Free worldwide shipping.
## The Artisan's DNA (Technical Specifications)
The Mehtab Maxi is a complex construction using layered, breathable fabrics. The Maxi itself is constructed from a premium-grade Organza, offering beautiful structure and flow, while the trousers use a complementing Pure Silk for a tailored fit. The embroidery technique is a dense, high-authority blend that maximizes light reflection. It heavily utilizes delicate Kora and precise Dabka for dimension, anchoring hundreds of minute Pearls, shimmering Sequins, and scattered Diamantes and Stones. This high concentration of materials, applied over hours by master craftspeople, confirms the Heirloom Quality that rivals pieces from designers like Faiza Saqlain and HSY.
- Material: Maxi: Premium Organza; Trousers: Pure Silk; Dupatta: French Net (3-yard for maximum Drape).
- The Craft: Hand-embellished Zardozi base (Tila), Kora, Dabka, Pearl work, Sequins, Stones, Beads, and Diamantes.
- The Components: Floor-Length Maxi, Tailored Silk Trousers, and a 3-yard Net Dupatta with beaded border detail.
