The Novbahar Collection ends where Kashmir's own artistic tradition is most itself — with colour, in abundance, against black. The Novbahar Black Co-ord Set with Multicolour Floral Embroidery is the final piece in this collection and the most visually generous. Red, pink, and green Kashmiri Aari floral motifs across jet black is not a restrained choice. It is a declaration — that craft this considered, in colours this deliberate, deserves to be seen fully and without apology.

Part of the Novbahar 2026 Collection by KashmirPheran — our first collection of Kashmiri Aari embroidery co-ord sets designed by artisans rooted in the Kashmir Valley — this is the piece that closes the collection as it should be closed. With joy.

Made in Ruby Cotton — lightweight and breathable, the fabric that makes wearing bold embroidery on black feel effortless rather than heavy. The multicolour Kashmiri Aari floral embroidery in red, pink, and green runs across the notched neckline, front panel, side panels, sleeve borders, hemline of the tunic, and along the pants — the most extensively placed embroidery across the body of any co-ord in the Novbahar Collection. Red brings warmth. Pink brings softness. Green brings the Kashmir valley itself. Against black, all three become more vivid than they would be on any other ground.

The silhouette is a straight-cut tunic with side slits at the thigh, paired with matching straight pants. The notched neckline is clean. Three-quarter sleeves carry the embroidery without overwhelm. Relaxed, structured, and true-to-size — the most festive everyday piece in the collection.

How to Style

For festive occasions and celebrations — pair with antique gold jhumkas, a black or red silk potli bag, and gold kolhapuris or block heels. The multicolour embroidery across the front panel and side panels means the outfit carries a celebration effortlessly — keep jewellery warm-toned and let the embroidery lead every conversation in the room.

For everyday wear — wear with white sneakers, a minimal black or tan crossbody, and small gold hoops. Multicolour embroidery on black sounds dressed-up — in Ruby Cotton with a straight-cut silhouette it is anything but. This is the piece that makes a regular Tuesday feel considered without any effort.

For gifting — the Novbahar Multicolour Co-ord is the most universally celebratory piece in the collection. Black is universally flattering. Multicolour embroidery suits most personal styles. Red, pink, and green together carry the spirit of every occasion worth celebrating — Diwali, Eid, weddings, birthdays, homecomings. A gift that arrives already dressed for whatever the occasion turns out to be.

About the Craft & the Artisans

Multicolour embroidery in the Kashmiri Aari tradition requires the artisan to make decisions that single-colour work does not — which colour to use in which part of each motif, how the colours relate to each other across the full garment, and how the combined palette reads against the base fabric from a distance and up close. The red, pink, and green chosen for this piece reflect a colour relationship that has existed in Kashmiri craft for centuries — warm tones and cool tones balanced by the neutral ground of the black fabric, each colour more visible for the presence of the others. The craft takes its name from the aari, a fine hooked needle historically used to draw thread through fabric in continuous chain-stitch loops.

The motifs on every piece in the Novbahar Collection were designed by artisans based in the Kashmir Valley — craftspeople carrying this multi-colour design knowledge forward. The embroidery is produced in Kashmir and each co-ord set is stitched and finished there — ensuring the creative and economic value of this craft stays rooted in the community that created it.

At KashmirPheran, we believe Kashmiri craft deserves a global audience — worn with joy, shared without hesitation, and remembered. The Novbahar 2026 Collection is complete. Thank you for wearing it.
