Description
Behold Shahnoor – a heritage couture dress that breathes the soul of Afghanistan into every stitch.
Crafted in a majestic emerald green and earthy brown palette, this masterpiece carries layers of Afghan guldozi (ګل دوزي), zaridozi (زری دوزي), and shishe-dozi (ښيښه دوزي). The dress features:
✨ Hand-stitched floral embroidery flowing across the bodice & sleeves
✨ Silver coins & tribal jewelry accents – echoing the sounds of Afghan tradition
✨ Ornate borders on every tier, stitched by Afghan artisans over weeks of work
✨ Full-length silhouette with flared sleeves and skirt that moves like poetry
