Vintage Anarkali style dress. Anarkali means “pomegranate flower” and the name of these dresses comes from a 16th-century Mughal legend.
According to tradition, Anarkali was a young dancer of extraordinary beauty who fell in love with the crown prince Salim, who would later become Emperor Jahangir. Their love was forbidden and when Emperor Akbar discovered it, he condemned the beautiful Anarkali to be walled up alive.
Over time, her figure became a symbol of tragic love, passion, and eternal beauty in India.
The Anarkali dress style, with its wide flare and elegant movement, is inspired by those she used to wear to dance at court.
Specifically, this dress is a unique piece crafted from fine tulle, embroidered with silk thread in floral and arabesque motifs with a vibrant and beautiful color.
