Elevate your bridal trousseau with “Zarmina,” a collector’s masterpiece in a warm, mesmerizing shade of Hammered Copper. Exclusively available at Hammad Impressions, this Metallic Silk ensemble is designed for the avant-garde bride in London, New York, and Toronto who seeks art over tradition. It is a fusion of heritage craftsmanship and metallic modernity.
The Design Philosophy: The “Zarmina” is centered around a timeless Kalidar silhouette crafted from pure Metallic Silk. The fabric itself exudes a liquid-gold sheen, serving as the perfect base for the intricate narrative embroidered upon it. The motifs feature a delicate, artistic depiction of birds, symbolizing freedom and beauty, meticulously rendered in heritage techniques.
The Finer Details:
-
The Kalidar (Frock): A heavy, flared frock adorned with a fusion of Zardozi, Resham, Vasli, and Kamdani work. The metallic copper base is brought to life with relief work (Vasli) and the sparkle of Kamdani, creating a 3D effect that glistens under evening lights.
-
The Lehenga: Paired with a matching metallic silk lehenga that features delicate, scattered sprays of Zardozi and Resham. This balances the heavy Kalidar, allowing for movement and grace.
-
The Dupatta:
-
Option A (Royal): A long copper metallic silk dupatta heavily worked in Zardozi and Resham borders with intricate pallu details.
-
Option B (Vintage Charm): Can be paired/layered with a Crushed Metallic Silk Dupatta for added texture and volume (highly recommended for a double-dupatta look).
-

Style Tip:
This copper shade looks incredible with Antique Polki or Navratan Jewelry. Since the neck of the Kalidar is usually heavy, opt for statement Chandbali earrings and a Maang Tikka. Keep the makeup in warm bronze and nude tones to maintain the monochromatic luxury.
