Mirror Work Cowrie Ghungroo Navratri Kamarbandh

The Mirror Work Cowrie Ghungroo Navratri Kamarbandh by Riditri is a colourful embroidered waist belt made for garba nights. It has thread-embroidered medallions, sparkling mirror-work flowers, cowrie shell charms and chiming ghungroo bells. It ties with a soft black ribbon, so it is super adjustable and fits any waist size. Wear it with your chaniya choli and you are ready to twirl all nine nights of Navratri.

Design

• Five embroidered motifs on a black base, set side by side.
• Three round medallions with a jaali (lattice) pattern and tiny star flowers in the centre, framed by bands of pink, orange, green, purple and yellow thread and looped chain-stitch borders.
• Two mirror-work flowers, each with teardrop mirror petals outlined in pastel thread and a bright embroidered flower at the centre.
• A fringe of silver-toned bead strings hangs below. They end in cowrie shell charms and in coloured beads (red, yellow, green and blue) with clusters of tiny ghungroo bells.
• A long black satin ribbon on both ends to tie it at the back.

Size Guide

This kamarbandh is free size and fully adjustable. Place the embroidered panel at the front, take the black ribbons around your waist and tie them at the back as tight or loose as you like. Because it ties instead of hooking, it fits every waist size. Wear it on your natural waist or lower on the hips over a chaniya choli.

Styling Tips

• Garba and dandiya: Wear it over a black or colourful chaniya choli. The ghungroos chime and the cowries swing with every garba step.
• Match the mirror work: It looks best with mirror-work or Kutch-style embroidered outfits.
• Black outfits: The black base blends in, so the embroidery, mirrors and cowries really stand out.
• Complete the look: Add oxidised jhumkas, a mirror-work choker, Kashmiri ghungroo bangles and a matching potli bag.
• Beyond Navratri: Also lovely for mehendi, haldi, theme parties and folk dance performances.
