Celebrating The Indian Heritage of Embroidery
Embroidery has always been an integral part of Indian culture. As kids you must have witnessed the rich tradition of embroidery when our mothers or grandmothers, enjoying the warmth of the sun in the winter times, used to sit with colorful threads, embroidery rings, needles and what not. All sharing stories meanwhile neatly working on their traced designs, preparing beautifully embroidered pillow covers, table runners, dupattas and more.
These unforgettable moments of childhood not only exposed us to the rich heritage of India but also inculcated an itch to pursue the traditional learning and carry it forward in many. At Moledro, the designs for creating an ensemble and outfit are uniquely chosen. It tells a story and delivers an instant connection with the wearer apart from just being an eye candy.
If we have to trace the art of embroidery then its existence has been noticed in the Rig Veda, however, the modern embroidery culture saw a boost with Mughals. Post the Mughal kings ascended to the Indian throne, the art and culture of the Indian subcontinent noticed a drastic change. The introduction of Islamic influenced designs and prints, the change in the jewelry design and garment construction can be easily seen by the naked eye.
