Athachamayam shirt

Rs. 3,800.00incl. all taxes
  • Inspired by the vibrant Athachamayam procession of Tripunithura, this limited-edition shirt celebrates the town where Malathi Silks began its journey. Every motif has been thoughtfully designed to capture the spirit of Onam and the rich cultural heritage that has defined Tripunithura for generations.
  • Crafted from authentic Chendamangalam handwoven cotton, the shirt features intricate thread embroidery created through a combination of meticulous handwork and precision machine embroidery. The artwork brings together iconic elements of Athachamayamfrom the historic Clock Tower and festive arches to traditional performers, temple motifs, decorated streets, and the joyful procession that marks the beginning of Kerala’s grandest festival.
  • Soft, breathable, and exceptionally comfortable, the Chendamangalam cotton fabric makes this shirt ideal for festive celebrations while the detailed embroidery transforms it into a wearable work of art.
  • More than an Onam shirt, this is a tribute to Tripunithura—our hometown, our heritage, and the place where the story of Malathi Silks first began.

"The Ajrakh print is stunning in person — the photos don't do it justice. Stitching is impeccable and the godet flare is exactly as described. Wore it to a wedding and received compliments all evening."
