Flower Power
Passed on from one generation to another, a vibrant phulkari dupatta or odhni is what a Punjabi bride’s trousseau is mostly packed in. Mine was carefully held together by a flaming red phulkari dupatta, that was once my mother’s. “Wear it on special occasions, no safety pins and make sure you wrap it in mul-mul,” was my mother’s advice before she placed it in the bags I would carry to my new home. Phulkaris, as the embroidered dupattas are referred to, are indeed a prized possession in Sikh homes mainly because the hand embroidery is a dying art. Literally meaning ‘art of flower’, where ‘phul’ comes from the word flower, and ‘kari’ is the technique of embroidery, phulkari was made by the ladies in the village who would embroider elaborate pieces. In the ‘bagh’ style, it’s hard to spot an inch of the base material. Over the years, it has, to use a cliche, been out of fashion limiting itself to a trousseau must-have even though traditional khadder (handspun cotton) has made way for softer chiffon.
