Help identifying piece of clothing?
Hi guys so I know this isn’t really the vibe of this sub but i was just wondering if anyone could help me out-
So I’m an English art student and I've got to write an essay for my course, so I decided to do mine about two artists (the Singh twins and Shelly Jyoti) who speak about the history of Indian Indigo in their work.
Anyway as part of it, I have to describe what some of their art looks like, for example the first image here is from one of the pieces I need to write about (from the Singh twins- Indigo: The Colour of India), and i want to describe the top she is wearing but i just don’t know what its called.
Its a painting of Mumtaz Mahal, the wife of emperor Shah Jahan, based of the miniature painting of her on the second slide.
So I know, again, this is a bit off topic for this sub, and pertains more to fashion history more than modern outfits, so i hope it doesn’t come off as odd that I’ve posted this here.. I wanted to post in r/India or r/askIndia but it wouldn’t let me post pictures so i thought maybe someone here would know a what this top is called or could point me in the direction of where to find out more?
Thanks everyone :)
