This is a handwoven Sambalpuri cotton kurti, likely an anarkali or A-line style dress, featuring a prominent black base with vibrant, multi-colored ikat and checked patterns. The garment appears to be a full-length piece or a long kurti, with a fitted bodice and a flared skirt.

Fabric:

The fabric is a coarse, handloom cotton, characteristic of Sambalpuri textiles. The distinctive "ikat" or "bandha" weaving technique is visible throughout, creating the blurred or feathery patterns on the black fabric.

Design and Patterns:

 * Bodice: The upper part of the kurti is intricately designed.

   * Yoke/Neckline: The chest area features a series of horizontal bands. The top band is a thin black and white pattern, followed by a wide band of green ikat with small, geometric white motifs. Below this is a thin, solid pink or fuchsia band, and a final green band with intricate gold or yellow threadwork.

   * Sleeves: The sleeves are short and appear to be made of the same fabric as the bodice.

 * Skirt: The main body of the kurti, which is flared, is a rich black with a subtle, all-over ikat pattern. The pattern consists of repeating almond-shaped or teardrop-like motifs arranged in vertical columns.

 * Hemline/Border: The most striking feature is the wide border at the bottom.

   * Top Band: A wide band of green ikat with intricate golden or yellow threadwork, matching one of the bodice bands.

   * Checked Pattern: Below the green band is a distinctive checked border in white, red, and green squares. This is a very traditional and recognizable pattern in Sambalpuri and Odisha handloom.

   * Bottom Border: The final border at the very bottom is another band of green ikat with the same golden or yellow motifs.

Fit and Style:

The kurti has a round or boat neck, and the waistline is well-defined, from which the fabric flares out dramatically, giving it an anarkali silhouette. The overall look is traditional yet stylish, suitable for festive occasions or everyday wear.

Colors:

The primary color is black, which serves as a striking backdrop for the other colors. The contrasting colors include shades of green, red, white, pink (or fuchsia), and gold/yellow threadwork.
