It takes 70+ hours to make this shacket. One person works slowly through every detail - layering tukri appliqué, guiding the ari needle across cotton, shaping paisley motifs that spiral like the ones your grandmother wore. The hands that hold the needle are the same hands that will fold it, pack it, and send it from Rahim Yar Khan to you.

This made to order piece is crafted with care and intention. Please allow an estimated 15-18 days to have your order processed.

100% handmade khadi cotton with tukri appliqué and hand ari embroidery. Loose fit with elasticated hem and paisley motifs, refined for summer layering over everything.

 Final stock. Not remade. Not restocked.
Garment detail

100% handmade khadi cotton with tukri appliqué and hand ari embroidery, stitched by the artisans of Rahim Yar Khan.

Loose fit shacket with one-piece collar construction and front buttoned placket for a refined, versatile silhouette. The elasticated hem and classic buttoned cuffs balance structure with movement. Paisley motifs trace across the fabric, creating visual interest.

Hand-stitched Another Sect label for authentic craftsmanship.

This article is unisex. The model is wearing size M.

Care: Dry clean only to preserve embroidery and structure.

The craft story

The paisley didn't start as a teardrop. It started as a cypress tree - a Zoroastrian symbol of life and eternity before it bent into the boteh shape that now appears on everything from scarves in Srinagar to ties in Savile Row. Somewhere in that journey, it became both universal and deeply specific. Everyone recognizes it. Few know why.

The Dharani carries paisley motifs stitched by artisans in Rahim Yar Khan using tukri appliqué, a technique where fabric pieces are layered and hand-sewn to create raised, dimensional patterns. Not printed. Not stamped. Cut, placed, stitched. Hand ari work (done with a small hooked needle) traces details around each motif, creating texture that catches light differently than the base fabric.

70+ hours of handwork on khadi cotton, which breathes differently than industrial cotton because it's made differently. The elasticated hem gathers at the waist without clinging - functional, but also a quiet nod to the gathered kameezes your mother wore, the ones that moved when she walked.

Runs true to size. Loose fit through shoulders and body. Not sure about fit? Message us on WhatsApp - same-day response.
