Aashima Behl's emerald green ekaa embroidered kaftan is cut from crinkled emerald green tissue that catches the light every time you move. It falls loose from the shoulders and gathers at the center front, so the fabric drapes into soft folds instead of clinging. A deep V-neck is framed in gold zardozi paisleys with sequins and colored stones, and the same work trims the wide sleeves, each finished with a beaded tassel. At the back, covered buttons run down an embroidered placket, and a matching slip sits underneath for coverage. Wear it to a mehendi, a roka or an engagement lunch where you will be sitting, eating and dancing for hours.
Founded in 2012, this Delhi-based label creates pieces shaped by an instinctive understanding of fabric, form, and movement. Rooted in a deep love for handwoven Indian textiles, Aashima Behl is known for its fluid drapes, sculpted silhouettes, and a balance between softness and structure. Each collection reflects a thoughtful reworking of traditional craft, resulting in pieces that feel expressive, confident, and distinctly individual. With a focus on accessible luxury, the label offers ensembles that carry both character and quiet strength.

Is the emerald green zardozi kaftan from Aashima Behl a good mehendi outfit for the bride's sister?
Yes, the emerald green ekaa embroidered kaftan by Aashima Behl suits the bride's sister at a mehendi: green is the signature mehendi color, and the loose tissue drape is easy to sit on the floor in for hours. Wide sleeves stay clear of fresh henna, and the zardozi V-neck looks festive in close-up photos.
Does an emerald green tissue kaftan look formal enough for a roka or engagement ceremony?
Yes, this Aashima Behl emerald green tissue kaftan looks formal enough for a roka because the gold zardozi, sequins and colored stones at the neckline and cuffs give it the finish of a heavier outfit. The center-front gather adds shape, and the embroidered button placket keeps the back as dressed as the front.
What jewelry works with the emerald green ekaa kaftan's zardozi V-neck?
A choker or short layered necklace works best with the Aashima Behl emerald green ekaa kaftan, because the zardozi paisleys already outline the deep V-neck. Add stacked bangles to echo the beaded tassels on the sleeves and keep earrings mid-sized so the neckline stays the focus.
Does the emerald green ekaa embroidered kaftan come with a slip, and how does it close?
Yes, the emerald green ekaa embroidered kaftan by Aashima Behl comes as 2 pieces: the tissue kaftan and a matching slip worn underneath. It closes with covered buttons on an embroidered placket at the back neck.
How do I care for the tissue and zardozi on this emerald green kaftan, and when will it ship?
Dry clean the Aashima Behl emerald green ekaa kaftan only, since the tissue and zardozi should not be washed at home. It ships from India in 4 weeks, then takes 5-7 business days to arrive after dispatch; import duties are paid by the customer on delivery.
