Stylish Kurti Neck Design Cutting and Stitching – Step By Step (Video Tutorial)
Tired of the same old round neck kurti? I don’t blame you! The neckline is the first thing people notice, and a small change there can transform your entire outfit. I remember a client who had a wardrobe full of plain kurtis; we just altered the necklines, and she felt like she had a whole new collection!
Here are two stylish yet simple designs you can try:
The Keyhole Neck with Tie: This is a personal favorite for adding a boho-chic touch. Instead of stitching the center front closed, you leave an opening (the “keyhole”) about 4-5 inches down. Finish the raw edge with bias tape or piping. Then, add a fabric tie or a tassel cord. It’s flattering and allows for a customizable fit.
The Asymmetrical Boat Neck: So modern and elegant! This involves extending the neckline wide and almost off-the-shoulder on one side, while the other side remains higher. The cutting requires a slight slope. Use a strong interfacing on the facing piece to keep the wide neckline from sagging. It’s perfect for showing off those statement earrings.
The key to a professional finish is always in the facing. Take your time to understitch it; this keeps it from rolling out and makes your handmade kurti look store-bought!
