Anjugramam sits on the road out towards Kanyakumari, and the requests from this side lean towards lighter work.
Weight matters more than it sounds
A fully stone-covered blouse is impressive on a hanger and a punishment to wear through a long function in the hot months. A thread-heavy design with a smaller amount of stone at the neckline gives most of the effect and none of the weight, and it photographs without the hard flare stone gives under a flash.
That is worth saying out loud before the design is agreed, and it is said.
Fabric decides as much as design
Georgette and tissue drape beautifully and need backing before stone work goes anywhere near them, or the blouse pulls out of shape by the end of the evening. Send a photograph of the material along with the design and this gets sorted before the work starts rather than after.
How an order works
Nothing here needs a shop visit to begin. Most orders start and finish on WhatsApp.
- 01
Send the design
A photograph on WhatsApp is enough - something you have seen, saved from Instagram, or drawn. Tell us the date you need it by.
- 02
Get a straight answer
What it will take, what it will cost, and whether it can be done in the time you have. If it cannot, you will be told that rather than strung along.
- 03
Measurements or a blouse that fits
Come and be measured, or send an old blouse that fits you well. Bring your own material - most customers do, and it costs less.
- 04
The work itself
The design is traced, the fabric stretched on a frame, and every bead, stone and length of zari worked in by hand. Two to three weeks for bridal work.
