In the ever-evolving world of fashion, the most captivating looks are often those that bridge the gap between the past and the present. Modern Indian style isn't about letting go of our roots; it is about reimagining them for the contemporary woman. A touch of heritage be it through ancient embroidery techniques or traditional textiles adds a layer of soul and story to every outfit.
At Aachho, we specialize in this delicate balance. Our designs celebrate the intricate craftsmanship of India while ensuring the silhouettes remain fresh, wearable, and chic for today’s celebrations.

FAQs
1. What is Gotapatti work, and how do I care for it?
Gotapatti is a traditional embroidery technique from Rajasthan involving small pieces of gold or silver ribbon. To care for it, we recommend dry cleaning only and avoiding direct contact with perfumes to prevent the metal from tarnishing.
2. Is Bandhej suitable for semi-formal events?
Yes, Bandhej is incredibly versatile. A silk or georgette Bandhej suit is perfect for weddings, while a cotton Bandhej set like the Maroon Angrakha is ideal for festive lunches or semi-formal office celebrations.
3. How do I choose the right fabric for a summer wedding?
For summer celebrations, opt for breathable fabrics like Organza, Chanderi, or Cotton. These fabrics allow for better air circulation while still maintaining a rich, festive appearance.
4. Can Anarkali sets be worn by all body types?
Absolutely. The flared silhouette of an Anarkali set, like the Pearl Ivory Anarkali Set, is universally flattering as it cinches at the waist and flows gracefully over the lower body.
5. Are the handpainted designs on the suit sets permanent?
Yes, the designs on our Yellow Organza Handpainted Suit Set are created using high-quality fabric paints that are fixed to stay. However, gentle handling and professional dry cleaning are advised to maintain the artwork's longevity.
