Kalidaar
Kali means pleats, or panels.
daar means the one who possesses,
holds, "has". Together it becomes
"the one with kalis”.
This comes as a three piece ensemble of a kalidaar Ghagra (a skirt); a dupatta (a wrap); and fabric for making a blouse/ kurti.
Kalidaar Ghagra
Average length: 36 to 38 inches Waist range (with draw string) and zipper: 36-37 inches (one size fits many)
Kalidaar’s Dupatta
Average length: 34 to 36 inches Average Width: 95-100 inches. Some ensembles are designed with Dupatta attached to Kalidaar. They are removable. Most ensembles have a dupatta that is not attached to the kalidaar.
Kalidaar’s Blouse fabric
All kalidaars come with blouse fabric. Some kalidaars are given 2 blouse fabrics so that two can share. Or sometimes, a summer and winter blouse is also given as an option. This decision is mostly intuitional.
Average width: 40 inches
Average length: 40 inches- 60 inches (to offer range to make blouse, to short Kurti, sleeveless to long sleeves)
May have border attachments with the fabric (for creative aspect)
