What does handwork mean on a bridal lehenga?
It means the embroidery is placed by hand rather than run by machine. A machine repeats a motif on a fixed interval, while a hand worker varies density deliberately, follows the shape of each panel, and builds heavier coverage at borders while keeping the field lighter.
How long is the skirt and can it be shortened?
The lehenga length is recorded as 42 inches. Because the set is semi-stitched, a tailor can take the hem up during finishing, so treat 42 inches as the maximum. Measure from your waist to the floor in the footwear you plan to wear first.
Is the dupatta the same red as the lehenga?
No. The dupatta is beige net, against a red velvet lehenga and blouse. That contrast stops the outfit reading as a single dark block, and net keeps the panel light enough to pin over the head without adding heat to an already heavy velvet set.
What does semi-stitched mean for this set?
The stitching field records this as semi-stitched, so the pieces arrive partly constructed and a tailor completes them to your measurements. Blouse customisation is recorded up to a 42 inch bust and waist. Allow time for that fitting step before the wedding date rather than after.
