It has said to have been developed during the 14th century. Mashroo was created to conform to the tenets of Islam which forbade silk to touch the skin. Weavers developed a fabric with a silk warp and cotton weft, where the cotton lays beneath and grazes the skin, while the silk floats on top. This enabled the ruling Islamic nobility to flaunt and wear the luxurious sheen of silk without breaking religious law.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eMashroo became a widely popular export to the Ottoman Empire. In Patan, Hindu merchants and traders also took a liking to this fabric and created adaptations of certain typical motifs, colors and tie-dye. Today, our mashroo is still woven in Patan with the few weavers who remain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eMeasurements (taken laying flat):\u003cbr\u003eSize Medium: Shoulder to shoulder 16\", Bust 36\"-40\", Waist 32\"-36\", Hip 40\"-44\", Sleeve 27.5\", Length 41\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eKatyerina\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e is 5'8 and a size medium and wears size medium.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eMaterial: 100% Silk Mashroo, Glass beads\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCare: Dry clean only.\u003cbr\u003e*This piece is hand-beaded and therefore delicate and requires care - store folded to reduce stress on fabric over time. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade by hand in Ahmedabad, India.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TIGRA TIGRA","offers":[{"title":"M","offer_id":42940434907230,"sku":null,"price":1330.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0020\/8587\/9872\/files\/off-the-shoulder-beaded-dress-5.jpg?v=1783705188","url":"https:\/\/100percentsilkshop.com\/products\/off-the-shoulder-beaded-dress","provider":"100% SILK SHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
