Basically high-waisted rib knit leggings but in the most luxe and effortless way possible. Extra-long, churidaar style, with intricate hand-beading, embroidery and shisha (mirror) work at the ankles, which subtly incorporates nods to playing cards, bringing it into the world of Press Play. This silhouette is inspired by our 90’s aunties who had the best of the best style. Wear it with the Mock-Neck Jewelled Blouse, or Sheer Button-down Blouse in this new Fall collection.

Mirror-work or shisha work is an embroidery technique that involves attaching glass or small pieces or mirrors or reflective material to cloth. It’s a very familiar part of Indian textile design today, most commonly found in the Northwestern states of Gujarat and Rajasthan. Typically, you’ll find shisha work on traditional kurtas or tunic yokes, and on decorative wall hangings and bedspreads. Beyond solely decorative use, many believe that mirror-work is an auspicious tool for warding off the evil eye, reflecting bad luck and evil spirits away from the wearer.
Abacaxi's new take on this technique has been to do it on a wearable knit fabric with some stretch, and add hanging bugle beads for a 3D fringe effect.

97% Cotton/ 3% Lycra

Hand-wash in cold water and dry flat or dry clean only due to beading.
