Surkh means ""red"" in Urdu, and this deep scarlet ensemble earns its name. The princess-pleated jacket is covered - and I mean covered - in white hand embroidery and mirror work from shoulder to hem. No bare fabric, no breathing room, just dense craft work that creates texture across the entire bodice and sleeves. The V-neck tie closure with tassels adds a focal point amidst all that embellishment.
The jacket's vertical princess panels create a fitted silhouette that flares slightly at the waist, paired with wide kali palazzo pants that flow to the floor. The pants match in color but stay intentionally plain, letting the jacket be the hero.
White-on-red is classic Indian contrast - it's bridal, it's auspicious, it's unapologetically festive. This color combination doesn't work for subtle occasions because it's not designed for subtlety.
Wear this to Diwali parties where maximum festive is expected. Wedding sangeets. Karva Chauth. Occasions where traditional red feels appropriate but you want a contemporary silhouette. Surkh doesn't do understated.
