What is a kurta set?
A kurta set is an outfit with a kurta and a matching or coordinated bottom, such as pants, palazzo or churidar, and often a dupatta. In India, kurta sets and suit sets overlap, and both are popular for festive and everyday wear.
What is included in a chikankari kurta set?
A chikankari kurta set typically includes the embroidered kurta, a bottom and often a dupatta. Contents differ by design, so check the listing. For Aurunii suits, see “What is included” on each product page.
What is the difference between a kurta set and a suit set?
Both include a kurta and bottom. A suit set often implies a salwar, churidar or straight pants with a dupatta, while a kurta set can be simpler and may not include a dupatta. In practice, the terms are often used interchangeably.
What is a chikankari kurti set?
A chikankari kurti set pairs a shorter chikankari kurti with a matching bottom, and sometimes a dupatta. It is lighter and more casual than a long kurta set, and is popular for daytime wear.
Which fabric is best for a cotton kurta set for women?
Cotton, mulmul and cotton voile are breathable and comfortable for hot weather and daily wear. They can shrink slightly and crease, so follow the care label. For festive events, georgette or organza give a richer, dressier look.
Which kurta set is best for party wear?
For parties, choose a kurta set in a rich colour or an airy fabric such as organza. Aurunii’s organza chikankari suits, priced at ₹11,000, and semi-stitched suits in Magenta Wine or Scarlet Rust are made for celebrations.
How do I choose the right size when buying a kurta set online?
Take your bust, waist, hip and length measurements and compare them with the size chart, or share them with the seller. For unstitched suits, your tailor sets the size. For semi-stitched suits, message us on WhatsApp first.
What is the difference between unstitched, semi-stitched and ready kurta sets?
Unstitched is uncut fabric stitched to your measurements. Semi-stitched is partly prepared for quicker finishing. Ready kurta sets arrive fully stitched in standard sizes. Aurunii offers unstitched and semi-stitched suits.
Does Aurunii sell ready-made kurta sets?
Aurunii currently sells unstitched and semi-stitched chikankari suits, which you can have stitched into a kurta set. We do not list ready-made stitched sets at present. Message us on WhatsApp to ask about availability.
How do I style a chikankari kurta set?
Keep accessories simple so the embroidery stays the focus. Gold or oxidised jewellery suits deep colours, and pearls or silver suit pastels. Add statement earrings for evenings, and choose comfortable footwear for long functions.
Can I wear a chikankari kurta set to a wedding?
Yes. Choose a rich colour or organza for evening functions, and a softer shade for day events. Semi-stitched sets save tailoring time when the date is close. Check the family’s dress code first.
