?? Pattern and Color Palette Overview

The collection showcases a diverse range of rich, deep, and bright colors, each accented with the distinct white or contrasting resist patterns of Wax Batik and shimmering sequence work.

**The Wax Batik Pattern:**

The **Wax Batik** technique creates a distinctive, cracked or mottled effect in the background due to the wax resist, which is a hallmark of this craft. The primary designs visible on the top pieces (kurtas) are:

• **Floral and Geometric Motifs:** Prominent motifs include large, stylized **eight-petal flowers** and smaller, intricate **geometric patterns** arranged in repeating layouts.
• **Paisley and Traditional Elements:** Some designs feature classic **paisley (manga)** shapes, especially along the borders or as central dispersed motifs.
