The Sitara: Deep Black Silk Jora Set | Intricate Dabka Zardozi Heirloom & Free Worldwide Shipping
The Editor's Note
The Sitara Jora Set is the definitive statement of evening luxury. Rendered in an absolute Black pure silk, the entire three-piece silhouette possesses a regal, sculptural drape that moves with sophisticated weight. The deep canvas of the silk is illuminated by the luminescent artistry of hand-embellished Zardozi, where every stone and bead creates a celestial shimmer—a true reflection of the garment's name. This is the essential formal piece for high-end party wear or an intimate dinner, offering a powerful, heirloom-quality look delivered factory-direct for the global elite.
The "Insider" Product Story: Factory-Direct Provenance
The Sitara embodies powerful unbranded luxury through its exceptional composition and artisanal depth. The Kameez, Trousers, and the fluid 3-yard Dupatta are all constructed from premium 80g Pure Raw Silk, the exact grade utilized by Lahore’s most exclusive couturiers. By bypassing the designer markup and commissioning work direct from the loom in the esteemed Mochi Gate ateliers, we guarantee designer quality without the label. This piece demands approximately 150 hours of meticulous hand-work, expertly blending dimensional Kora and Dabka with reflective stones, beads, and Resham thread for maximum impact against the Black base. This elite artistry is made globally accessible, underpinned by our promise of Free Worldwide Shipping to the UK, USA, Canada, and Australia, available either as Ready to ship Pakistani inventory or through our bespoke customization service.
The Artisan's DNA (Technical Specifications)
The garment’s core strength is the all-encompassing use of the pure, weight-balanced 80g Pure Raw Silk, which ensures a luxurious, weighty drape essential for an evening silhouette. The dense embroidery utilizes authentic, high-grade Zardozi craftsmanship executed in a brilliant silver- and gold-toned palette for maximum contrast. Techniques include the application of three-dimensional Dabka (coiled metallic wire) and Kora, alongside the refined integration of polished Stones and glittering Beads. This detailed, precise layering creates a powerful, intricate sparkle against the absorbing Black background, establishing us as the topical authority on South Asian craftsmanship. This commitment to detailed, time-honoured technique is affirmed by:
Artisan Pledge: Crafted by the family of Ustad Bashir, 3rd generation Zardozi masters, ensuring ethical and authentic production.
