Embellishments: Densely worked with traditional hand-embroidery including zardozi, dabka, fine threadwork, and shimmering sitara (sequin) accents in floral motif patterns covering the entire shirt.
Cuffs & Hem: Bordered with heavy, intricately worked borders (patti) that add weight and detail to the cuffs and lower hem.
