Mirror work also
known as idam or shisha(mirror) embroidery is a traditional art of fixing into
a fabric. It is known as Shisheh
(Persian) or Abhala Bharat embroidery. It involves the fixing of small mirrorsor other reflecting metal in different shapes, on clothes or apparel. The
Salwar Kameez is a garment worn by many Indian women across the length and
breadth of India and offers a large canvas for any art such as Mirror work that
lends them a sparkling appearance. It also enhances the look of plain fabrics
or those with an otherwise dull appearance.
Imaginatively used they tend to heighten the appeal
of designer fabrics. Mirror work is used effectively on a variety of fabrics
like cotton, silk, chiffon, crepe, georgette and Supernet. Mirror work is used
as a point of interest on a seemingly plain fabric, or for strategicpositioning on the fabric as part of an intended design, where the mirror used
in specific shapes could lend more life-like quality to the fabric. For
example, it could be Bindi on the forehead of a woman’s face, very shapely
sparkling eyes of a face or the centre of a flower in a floral pattern.
Mirrors are fixed to the fabric by placing the mirrors
in the desired places and putting cross stitches over them in a pattern. The
patterned stitches not only hold the mirrors in place but additionally
contribute to the beauty of the saree as designs. Circular shape is most
popular, though other shapes like square, triangular, or some other geometrical
shape like polygon, hexagon, also figure in the designs. Initially practised
only in Gujarat and Rajasthan, it is an art seen in most parts of the country.
The black and white with deep red pure
cotton printed salwar kameez has a black and white net like design printed allover the kameez with deep red and mustard embroidery mirror work. The salwar is
a plain deep red cotton printed one. The deep red chiffon chunni has black
stripes across and a daman patch border along with dual colour borders.
