What a rasakali top is, the difference between normal height and full height, and which fabric and bottom suits each.
A rasakali top is a flowy long top that is cut to your own measurements. Size Hub sells it in two lengths: the Rasakali Top Normal Height and the Rasakali Top Full Height. This guide explains how they differ and which one to choose.
Rasakali top: normal height
The Rasakali Top Normal Height is a pattern with a flattering silhouette and comfortable ease. It is made for standard height measurements, so you get a well-balanced look without extra adjustments. It suits casual and semi-formal wear.
Rasakali top: full height
The Rasakali Top Full Height is a long-length top that extends below the waist. It is a traditional, graceful design that you can pair with leggings, palazzos or skirts, for casual and festive wear.
Normal height vs full height
- Length: normal height is cut for standard height measurements; full height is a long top that goes below the waist.
- Wear: normal height suits casual and semi-formal wear; full height suits casual and festive wear.
- Worn with: full height is meant to be paired with leggings, palazzos or skirts.
- Price on Size Hub: ₹650 for normal height and ₹790 for full height, price includes GST.
Which fabric to choose
For the normal height pattern, lightweight fabrics such as cotton, linen or rayon give the flowy, elegant finish the design is made for. Choose a soft fabric for the full height top too, so the length falls well.
How to order
Like every Size Hub pattern, the rasakali top is a paper farma drafted to your own measurements, not a standard size. Give your measurements, and see how to take them in our measuring guide. Browse all the tops in the chudi patterns section.
Tips before you stitch
- Wash and dry cotton, linen and rayon before cutting, because they can shrink and a flowy top is easy to spoil.
- Lay the paper pieces on the fabric with the grain line running along the length of the cloth, so the top falls straight.
- Check the length against your own height before cutting, and decide what you will wear it with. A top meant for leggings or palazzos is cut differently from one worn as a short kurta.
- Let the finished top hang for a day before you hem it, so a soft fabric settles.
