Gulbahar — Royal Blue Kashmiri Kaftan with White Aari Embroidery
Description
Royal blue is a colour with a position — it occupies whatever space it enters. The Gulbahar Royal Bloom Kashmiri Kaftan uses that quality deliberately: a saturated royal blue crush cotton base carrying white Kashmiri Aari daisy and fern motifs with precise black flower centres, framed at the V-neckline by a geometric black and white chevron trim that adds a contemporary graphic edge to an artisan craft tradition. The neckline composition spreads outward across the chest in a sculptural arrangement. Five individual daisy and fern sprigs are placed across the front body. A white scroll border traces the hemline and sleeve edges. This kaftan reads as designed — because it is, at every point.
The Gulbahar by Hamiast brings Kashmir's artisan embroidery into contemporary silhouettes for women who want craft and confidence in the same garment.
Wide batwing sleeves. Asymmetric hemline. Crush cotton base for all-day ease. Embroidery that is maximum contrast — white and black on royal blue — maximum clarity. Produced by artisans in the Kashmir Valley.

Style Notes
Evening occasions — pair with white strappy heels, silver statement earrings, and a white or navy clutch. Royal blue at night is effortless formality — the black-centred embroidery adds a graphic edge that makes this piece memorable.
Casual daywear — wear with white sneakers, a minimal white or tan crossbody, and small silver hoops. Royal blue in daylight needs nothing more.
Travel — royal blue works against every background, pairs with white, black, tan, and silver, and arrives without needing an explanation. A kaftan made for destinations.
The Craft Behind the Collection
The three-colour embroidery in this kaftan — white motifs, black centres, on royal blue — requires the artisan to complete the white daisy and fern work first and then introduce the black centres with consistent precision across every flower. The geometric chevron trim along the V-neckline adds a separate technical requirement: structured stitch in a geometric pattern that must align at both corners of the V without distortion. These combined techniques reflect a high level of embroidery skill specific to Kashmir's Aari tradition. Designed and produced by artisans in the Kashmir Valley.
