We've dressed over 10,000 dancers since 1967, and this design reflects decades of feedback on what truly works for young artists.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this Krishnar Top suitable for a Bharatanatyam performance or Arangetram?
A: Absolutely. This Krishnar Top is designed with Bharatanatyam in mind, from its traditional Angrakha style and vibrant colors to the durable Art Silk Brocade fabric. It provides the visual appeal and freedom of movement required for classical dance, making it perfect for performances, including an Arangetram.
Q: What size is this top, and can it be altered for a 12-year-old?
A: This top is sized to fit a typical 12-year-old comfortably. While it's designed with some room for movement, our experienced tailors at Shanthi Tailors can often make minor adjustments if needed. We recommend checking our detailed size chart for precise measurements. Our store has been providing tailored solutions since 1967.
Q: How should I care for this Art Silk Brocade top to maintain its vibrant look?
A: To preserve the rich color and integrity of the brocade weave and zari work, we strongly recommend professional dry cleaning. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents. Store the top folded in a breathable cotton cloth, away from direct sunlight, to prevent fading and damage.
Q: Are the decorative blue and gold tassels (doris) on the Angrakha top removable?
A: The tassels are securely attached as a functional and aesthetic part of the Angrakha design, allowing you to adjust the fit of the overlap. While not designed to be easily removable, a skilled tailor could detach them if absolutely necessary. However, we advise keeping them as they contribute to the authentic Krishnar look.
Q: What makes this top particularly suitable for portraying the 'Krishnar' role?
A: The bright marigold yellow is traditionally associated with Lord Krishna's attire, symbolizing joy and divinity. The circular brocade motifs and the Angrakha style are classic elements seen in depictions of Krishna, giving this top an immediate visual connection to the character. Combined with appropriate jewelry and accessories, it perfectly captures the playful yet majestic essence of Krishnar, a detail we've perfected over decades of costume design.
