If you have ever admired a beautifully embellished blouse, lehenga or dupatta and wondered how those intricate patterns were created — the answer is almost always Aari embroidery . This ancient needlework technique has become one of the most in-demand skills in Tamil Nadu's fashion industry, and at Mitaish Boutique & Fashion Designing Institute in Avadi, Chennai , we both practice it and teach it.
