  • The Jails and the Women Prisoners As They Exist……
    CHAPTER - 1 THE JAILS AND THE WOMEN PRISONERS AS THEY EXIST……. The state of Punjab is a prosperous region known for its industrious and hardworking people. But even as these tall well built people cope with numerous specific regional problems, accept changes and grow in a global world – the glaring fact that needs specific attention, is the growing incidence of crime and even more so - the growing incidence of crime committed by women. The changing nature and patterns of these crimes require serious consideration. Most jails had little or no provisions for women to start with - later some arrangements were made to accommodate them. With the increase in women prisoners in each jail the area of confinement is deficient in many ways. Taking up the region of Punjab, which is the focus of the present study, we find that all the prisons located in the various parts of Punjab do not have provisions to keep women prisoners. Only the District and Central jails, which are eight in number, have some provisions to keep women prisoners. There is one exclusive jail for women at Ludhiana, which houses only women prisoners. Once convicted, the women from all the other eight jails are supposed to be sent to this jail. However, a large number of under- trails are also lodged here. Women are under detention in the dowry act cases, drug trafficking- NDPS act, excise act, theft, murders due to family disputes and illicit relationships. A majority of the women prisoners belong to the lower socio-economic strata, a few to the lower middle class and a very few belong to the middle middle class strata of society.

  • Results and Discussion 83 RESULTS and DISCUSSION the Interest That Indian Women Showed in Ornamentation and Aesthetic Expression
    Results and Discussion RESULTS AND DISCUSSION The interest that Indian women showed in ornamentation and aesthetic expression through their costumes has been documented well. It is pertinent to understand the messages that they conveyed through their sartorial preferences which is documented in various forms sculptures, scriptures, literature, paintings, costume archives, cinema, media –advertisements and magazines etcetera. Each community and ethnic group maintained unique characteristics, which become symbols of recognition and identification and served to establish their cultural affiliation. Central to this was the Indian woman who was the symbol of patriarchal society. She combined both the functions of being the nurturer and protector of her household and cultural ethos of the society. The woman was as important part as the man; of the Indian society, which embraced both the indoor and outdoor roles within the social- cultural paradigms of the community. The span of evolution of Indian women’s costume, especially the draped version, the sari has undergone immense changes, however to interpret the semiology of the era bygone is rather complex; as one can attempt to understand and decode the tacit meaning through the lens of current observation only. Since the people who shared the ancient set of rules or code for contextual reading that enables us to connect the signifier with the signified are not present, this will prove to be delimiting. The Indian fashion scene began receiving its due credibility and attention from 1980’s onwards and gained the industry recognition in 21st century: hence this research focuses on new millennium to understand the Indian Fashion System.

  • Dress and Fabrics of the Mughals
    Chapter IV Dress and Fabrics of the Mughals- The great Mughal emperor Akbar was not only a great ruler, an administrator and a lover of art and architecture but also a true admirer and entrepreneur of different patterns and designs of clothing. The changes and development brought by him from Ottoman origin to its Indian orientation based on the land‟s culture, custom and climatic conditions. This is apparent in the use of the fabric, the length of the dresses or their ornamentation. Since very little that is truly contemporary with the period of Babur and Humayun has survived in paintings, it is not easy to determine exactly what the various dresses look like other than what has been observed by the painters themselves. But we catch a glimpse of the foreign style of these dresses even in the paintings from Akbar‟s period which make references, as in illustrations of history or chronicles of the earlier times like the Babar-Namah or the Humayun-Namah.1 With the coming of Mughals in India we find the Iranian and Central Asian fashion in their dresses and a different concept in clothing.2 (Plate no. 1) Dress items of the Mughals: Akbar paid much attention to the establishment and working of the various karkhanas. Though articles were imported from Iran, Europe and Mongolia but effort were also made to produce various stuffs indigenously. Skilful master and workmen were invited and patronised to settle in this country to teach people and improve system of manufacture.2 Imperial workshops Karkhanas) were established in the towns of Lahore, Agra, Fatehpur Sikri and Ahmedabad.

So shop for yourself or gift a sari to someone, we have something for everyone. The wavy bun completed her look. Face Deal. Long-time weaving families have found themselves out of work , their looms worthless. Sari , also spelled saree , principal outer garment of women of the Indian subcontinent, consisting of a piece of often brightly coloured, frequently embroidered, silk , cotton , or, in recent years, synthetic cloth five to seven yards long. But for some in Asian American communities, the prospect of the nation's first Black and South Asian Vice President wearing a traditional sari at any of the inauguration events -- even if the celebrations are largely virtual -- has offered a glimmer of positivity amid the tumult. Zari Work. As a politician, Dimple Kapadia's sarees were definitely in tune with the sensibilities but she made a point of draping elegant and minimal saree. Batik Sarees. Party Wear. Pandadi Saree. While she draped handloom sarees in the series, she redefined a politician's look with meticulous fashion sensibility. Test your visual vocabulary with our question challenge! Vintage Sarees. Hence there are the tie-dye Bandhani sarees, Chanderi cotton sarees and the numerous silk saree varieties including the Kanchipuram, Banarasi and Mysore sarees. You can even apply the filter as per the need and choose whatever fulfil your requirements in the best way. Yes No. Valam Prints. Green woven cotton silk saree. Though it's just speculation at this stage, and it's uncertain whether the traditional ball will even go ahead, Harris has already demonstrated a willingness to use her platform to make sartorial statements.

  • Contemporay Trends in Chikankari
    © 2020 IJRAR February 2020, Volume 7, Issue 1 www.ijrar.org (E-ISSN 2348-1269, P- ISSN 2349-5138) CONTEMPORAY TRENDS IN CHIKANKARI 1Reena S. Pandey , 2 Dr. Subhash Pawar 1Research Scholar , 2Adjunct Professor 1Faculty of Art & Design, 1Vishwakarma University , Pune, India Abstract : “Chikankari – Beauty on White “ as its main centre of focus, where its existence over the time is being studied with the different evolution it has shown in its products. Chikankari is a distinctive integral part of Lucknow culture. In India it is believed that Chikan embroidery may have existed from times immemorial. It is said that Noor Jahan brought this craft to India and later it was whole- heartedly adopted by the Nawabs of Lucknow. Thus it became a part of the culture of Lucknow. The embroidery work on clothes was a common feature. In ancient and medieval periods embroidery may have been more popular among the elites but in the present age it is common even among the masses. Because of which nowadays the market is flooded with coarsely executed work and thoughtless design diversifications which has eroded the sensibility of the craft. IndexTerms - Elegant, fine, extravagant, global presence, coarsely designs, elite class. I. INTRODUCTION “Fashion is architecture. It is a matter of proportions”, said Coco Chanel, (Sieve Wright, 2007) Chikankari is a traditional embroidery style from Lucknow, India. It’s an art, which results in the transformation of the plainest cotton and organdie into flowing yards of magic. Chikankari is subtle embroidery, white on white, in which minute and delicate stitches stand out as textural contrasts, shadows and traceries.

  • Chikan – a Way of Life by Ruth Chakravarty
    N° de projet :ALA/95/23 - 2003/77077 Chikan – A Way of Life By Ruth Chakravarty Chikankari is an ancient form of white floral embroidery, intricately worked with needle and raw thread. Its delicacy is mesmeric. For centuries, this fine white tracery on transparent white fabric has delighted the heart of king and commoner alike. It is centered mainly in the northern heartland of India, namely Lucknow, the capital of a large state, called Uttar Pradesh. It is a complex and elegant craft that has come down to us, evolving, over the years into an aesthetic form of great beauty. That it has survived the loss of royal patronage, suffered deeply at the hands of commercialization, lost its way sometimes in mediocrity and yet stayed alive, is a tribute to the skill and will of the craftspersons who have handed down this technique from one generation to another. There exist several kinds of white embroidery in Europe and across the world, each unique and distinct. Students of this craft like to believe that all forms of embroidery, in some way influence, imitate or complement each other. That may be true to some extent, but right at the onset, let me say that Chikankari is a genre quite unique from other embroideries. Chikankari is at once, simple and elegant, subtle and ornate. This heavy embroidery intricately worked on fine white muslin created a magical effect uniquely its own. The light embroidered fabric was most appropriate for the heat and dust of the North Indian summers. From the time of its inception, Chikan garments spelt class and craft.

  • The Dress Code for Women at Shanti Bhavan, Like Many
    The dress code for women at Shanti Bhavan, like many places throughout rural South India is relatively conservative: absolutely no shoulders, no cleavage, looser clothing (ie. no leggings and no tight tops) and nothing above the knees. Female Teachers’ Typical Clothing Many professional women wear kurtas, or long dresses with high slits at the sides which are paired with leggings or pants. Kurtas are also often worn with scarves that are draped across the shoulders as a display of modesty. This article of clothing is often worn by teachers, as it is often considered to be casual yet appropriate in the workspace. One important thing to note is that men also wear kurtas in India: in fact, traditionally women would wear the female version called kurtis while men wore kurtas. However, the term kurta is often used for the clothing article that both men and women wear. Volunteers and teachers are often recommended to wear kurtas while at the school—although wearing a kurta is not compulsory. In lieu of wearing kurtas, typically business-casual styles of dress (as long as they adhere to the rules of no exposed shoulders, cleavage, or knees) is acceptable. You will often see volunteers wearing trousers with a blouse, or long skirts paired with both a blouse and scarf. This is an example of a kurta, notice the high slit at the sides (often seen in kurtas) Aunties and Female Maintenance Workers’ Typical Clothing The aunties, who are the caretakers of the children, often wear traditional clothes, whether they wear kurtas or saris (a cropped blouse that often stops underneath the bustline and is paired with a nine-yard long fabric which is wrapped around the lower part of the body and draped over one shoulder).
