A full-flare chaniya in soft cotton with hand-placed abhla mirror work on the hem, a short choli with a flat back tie instead of hooks, and a light cotton-mul odhni edged in gota. The mirrors are stitched onto a cotton backing panel, so nothing sharp or scratchy ever sits against the skin.
The waist is half elastic and half drawstring, which means it fits on the first night of Navratri and still fits next year. Cut generously enough to twirl in for hours of garba, and machine-washable on a gentle cycle inside a pillowcase.
