Design and Style:

This is a traditional yet modern A-line Anarkali kurti. It features a fitted bodice that flares out into a full, flowing skirt. The most prominent design element is the long, central front slit, which adds a contemporary touch to the classic silhouette. The sleeves are three-quarter length, ending with a black and red patterned border.

Fabric and Weave:

The kurti is made from Sambalpuri cotton, a handloom fabric known for its comfort and durability. The patterns are created using the traditional ikat (tie-and-dye) weaving technique, where the threads are tie-dyed before being woven.

Color and Pattern:

 * Main Body: The majority of the kurti is a light grey color with a scattering of small, white ikat dots, giving it a subtle, textured look.

 * Central Panel: The front panel is the focal point, featuring a bold and striking checkered design in a combination of black, white, and red. This motif is a classic Sambalpuri ikat pattern, often referred to as "Pasapalli" or similar geometric designs. The panel is bordered by a thin, black-and-white patterned stripe.

 * Sleeves and Hem: The sleeves and the bottom hem of the kurti are finished with a solid black border, providing a clean contrast to the lighter grey and the vibrant central panel.

Overall Look:

The kurti combines traditional Sambalpuri craftsmanship with a popular modern design, creating a versatile garment suitable for both festive occasions and everyday wear. The contrasting colors and patterns make it a statement piece while retaining a sense of cultural heritage.
