Surkh-e-Shaam | Maroon Embroidered Asymmetric Co-ord Set

Rich, dramatic and unapologetically elegant, Surkh-e-Shaam brings together a deep red palette, fluid contemporary tailoring and intricate antique-gold Kashmiri embroidery.

The long kurta is designed with an asymmetric, flowing silhouette that falls gracefully over the matching trousers. Its defining feature is the ornate embroidered border that begins at the neckline and travels vertically down the front, creating a strong visual line through the ensemble. The same embroidery is echoed at the trouser hems, bringing cohesion to the look.

A contrasting black reverse on the embroidered stole adds an unexpected element to the otherwise richly coloured ensemble. The combination of deep red, antique gold and touches of black gives Surkh-e-Shaam a distinctly evening character—bold enough for a celebration, yet refined enough to remain timeless.

Signature Detail

The defining detail of Surkh-e-Shaam is its elongated Kashmiri embroidered border. Beginning at the neckline, the intricate antique-gold floral composition falls vertically down the front, creating an elegant frame for the deep-red silhouette.

The unexpected black reverse of the stole introduces a subtle contrast when the fabric moves, adding dimension to the look. The embroidery is intentionally concentrated rather than spread across the entire garment, allowing the richness of the red fabric to remain an equally important part of the design.

Styling Notes

The richness of the red and gold allows the accessories to remain refined. Style Surkh-e-Shaam with statement antique-gold earrings or jhumkas, keeping the neckline otherwise uncluttered so the embroidered border remains visible.

Pair with nude, gold or black heels and a structured clutch in black, deep red or antique gold. A sleek low bun or softly pulled-back hair will highlight the neckline and the vertical embroidery beautifully.

For a more dramatic evening look, add a deep red lip that echoes the colour of the ensemble.

Craftsmanship

At the heart of Surkh-e-Shaam is House of DSAK’s signature Kashmiri embroidery, reinterpreted through a contemporary silhouette.

The floral and botanical embroidery is placed along the neckline, front border and trouser hems, creating a rhythm that connects the entire ensemble. The antique-gold threadwork against the deep red base brings out the intricacy of the Kashmiri motifs while keeping the overall design modern and wearable.

The colour story captures the richer side of Shaam-e-Tilla—the deep reds of an evening sky as daylight gives way to darkness, punctuated by the warmth of gold.
