Lehanga Choli is favourite celebration dress, or party dress, for most young women in north India. Women love to wear this colourful and vibrant dress on occasions like Diwali, Holi, or New Year parties. And yes, it is number one dress for young women in all north Indian weddings. These days even brides, who previously used to wear mostly sarees, prefer to wear lehanga choli. For those not very familiar with Indian dresses, lehanga is the bottom part of the dress, skirt, usually knee length, or just a few inches above. Choli is a close fit, short length blouse, with open back and meant to be tied with a draw string. Sometimes women also like to add long rectangular Indian scarf to the ensemble of lehanga choli. ShalinCraft lehanga cholis are unique as they are handcrafted by some of the finest weaving artisans of Gujarat. The embroidery and printing skills of Gujarati artisans are respected worldwide. The fabric is printed through block printing or through tie and dye. Embroidery is unique because it makes extensive use of mirror works. Such embroidery gives the dress a dazzling look. But more important is the fact that according to Gujarati folklore, these mirrors are meant to reflect away any evils coming into one's life. All of ShalinCraft lehanga cholis come in cotton fabric making the dress extremely breathable. When you wear ShalinCraft Indian lehanga choli, you feel you are not just wearing a dress; you are wearing a work of art, a dress that has a soul. Read more...

The Raja's Magic Clothes: Revisioning Kingship and Divinity in England's India (1980) (Hermeneutics: Studies in the History of Religions)

List Price: $76.95

In The Raja's Magic Clothes, Joanne Punzo Waghorne places before our eyes British imperialism and a small South India kingdom in the actual settings in which they performed their interplay not only in the Indian world but also in the world of English courtiers, diplomats, and scholars. The Raja's Magic Clothes explores the refashioning of the rituals of kingship in Pudukkottai during the crucial period from 1858 to 1947. Waghorne discusses these changes in the context of a profound but undeclared reciprocity that occurred between British overlord and Indian prince, between British bureaucrat and Hindu pandit, and between British scholar and British civil servant in creating the grand ceremonial system of the Raj, and with it the multifarious world of ornamental things that permeated Victorian life. While scholars at Oxford and Cambridge worked diligently to create distinctions to mark West from East, rational from magical, and British from Indian, the British governors were sitting beside native princes like the Raja of Pudukkottai on his very throne and under his sacred canopy. The Raja's Magic Clothes reveals how the gap between the pragmatic need for a shared royal ritual and the theoretical construction of difference left open a space where overt theologies were masked, allowing the British and their Indian players to don old royal ornaments recovering religious things from a world beyond magic and reason.Since Joanne Waghorne was permitted use of the Palace Records for the first time, The Raja's Magic Clothes includes significant new material for scholars. In addition, the book provides the first full photographic documentation of the old palace at Pudukkottai, the Dakshinamurti temple within that palace, and the interior of the state Tirugokarnam temple, giving readers the opportunity to see the palace and both temples not only for the beauty of their art and architecture but also in the context of the complex ritual system.
