Naqsh-e-Shab | Kashmiri Embroidered Kurta Set

A deep black pheran set brought to life with intricate antique-gold Kashmiri embroidery, where floral motifs and ornate borders create a striking interpretation of evening elegance.

Naqsh-e-Shab, meaning the pattern of the night, is a study in contrast. The deep black base creates a rich canvas for elaborate Kashmiri embroidery in antique gold, allowing every floral motif and finely worked border to stand out with quiet drama.

The pheran features a softly rounded V-neckline framed with an elaborate embroidered composition. The detailing extends down the front in a richly worked panel, combining florals, foliage and traditional Kashmiri-inspired forms. Fine embroidered borders run vertically along the front and frame the side panels, giving definition to the relaxed silhouette.

The sleeves are finished with generous embroidered cuffs, featuring an intricate floral composition and a delicate contrasting fringe along the edge. The embroidery continues around the lower hem, where floral motifs and ornate borders trace the asymmetric curved silhouette. Coordinating wide-leg trousers complete the set, finished with detailed embroidered borders at the hem.

Part of Shaam-e-Tilla, Naqsh-e-Shab represents the deeper, more dramatic side of the collection—the moment when the last traces of evening light meet the darkness of night. The timeless black-and-gold palette allows the richness of Kashmiri embroidery to take centre stage, creating a piece that feels both rooted in tradition and distinctly contemporary.

Signature Detail

The defining feature of Naqsh-e-Shab is the rich concentration of Kashmiri embroidery across the neckline, cuffs and hem. The intricate floral composition at the neckline creates a strong focal point, while the embroidered borders running through the front and side panels give the silhouette structure.

The curved hem is finished with an ornate floral border, creating movement against the deep black base and allowing the antique-gold embroidery to reveal itself with every step.

Styling Notes

The black-and-gold palette makes Naqsh-e-Shab particularly versatile for evening dressing. Pair it with antique-gold or kundan-inspired jewellery and black or metallic heels for a more traditional festive look.

For a contemporary interpretation, opt for sculptural gold earrings, minimal accessories and a sleek clutch. Let the embroidered neckline and cuffs remain the focus of the look.
