Light Fawn Multi-Work Aari, Zardozi & Cut-Work Pure Silk Sherwani

The Naqsh Light Fawn Multi-Work Sherwani is the most complex and courageous piece in Rajwada's collection — a garment that brings together multiple craft disciplines on a single surface, creating an ensemble of extraordinary visual drama and artistic ambition.

Light fawn — a warm, sandy neutral with the richness of natural earth — serves as the canvas for this multi-layered embroidery narrative. It is a colour that absorbs and reflects simultaneously, making it the ideal neutral for heavy, multi-tonal needlework. Against it, the embroidery tells its story in chapters.

Aari chain-stitch embroidery establishes the foundational patterns, its fine looping lines creating the skeletal structure of the design. Zardozi then enters with metallic thread, building weight, gleam, and a distinctly ceremonial authority. And then comes the most distinctive element: mustard and pink cut-work — hand-worked appliqué or inlay in warm mustard and dusky pink tones that introduce colour contrast into what might otherwise be a monochromatic composition. The result is a sherwani that feels curated rather than loud, layered rather than excessive.

This is heavyweight hand-crafted work in the truest sense — each technique demanding its own skilled artisan, its own hours of focused, irreplaceable labour. In keeping with Rajwada's founding ethos, no element has been mechanised or compromised. Crafted in pure silk for the drape and luminosity that this level of embroidery demands, this sherwani is available in sizes 38 to 44 — a masterpiece for those who understand that true luxury is always made by hand.
