Gharchola garments are a unique feature of life in the Northwest. They are the most understated part of the bridal trousseau, the term having traditionally been reserved for the clothing meant to be worn by the bride around her new home. The sarees and dupattas that come under this category are typically brightly coloured and embroidered with sequins and mirrors, making for sumptuous works of silk. The one you see on this page is one such gharchola dupatta.
