How Anarkali suit became famous?
The Anarkali suit is the symbol of richness and history. It is a form of Salwar
Kameez worn by women in India and various South Asian countries. The name
‘Anarkali’ signifies the famous dancer at Mughal Emperor Akbar’s court, who
attracted and stole the heart of Prince Salim. She is renowned for her exceptional
beauty, and the name ‘Anarkali’ was given to her literally means ‘blossoming
pomegranate.’

This name is often related to romance, mystery, and tragedy. If we believe the popular
legend, it is the story of forbidden love between Anarkali and Prince Salim and the
consequence of their affair. Anarkali, as a dancer in the royal court, wore flattering
Kurtis. This design had a tight-fitting torso and flared expansively through the knee. The
dress was available with both half or full sleeves and unique necklines. Cotton, silks,
muslins, velvets, brocades, and organzas were used as the material for weaving
Anarkali suits.

There were so many unique and
distinguished motifs used in the print of the
Kurti. Block printing, gold thread work, and
Kalamakari (art using pens), or precious
stones were popular as motifs and part of the
Mughal culture.
The Hindi film industry made a significant
impact on Indian culture in the 20th century.
The story of love between Prince Salim and
Anarkali got its cinematic adaptation in 1960.
The film was called ‘Mughal-e-Azam.’ It was
a cinematic masterpiece, and the audience
adored the actress Madhubala as Anarkali.
The movie was so successful that it set the
trend, which continued for decades. The
Anarkali Kurti has seen so many changes
according to the fashion trends of the time.
New patterns, designs, embroideries, and
embellishments are used for creating the
latest innovations.

Today, the Anarkali is preferred for almost every special occasion like weddings,
parties, festivals, social gatherings, etc. Women of all ages love this suit design for its
elegance, uniqueness, and style. Even the film personalities and models wear Anarkali
on their special occasions or public appearances.
