The study was undertaken with a beautiful idea to collect various Motifs from Mugal Carpets to design Khadi Suits. To attain the specific objective of the study, methodology was divided in 4 phases and 30 arrangements were sketched using these motifs, out of which 5 arrangements were selected and rated by respondents on a scale from excellent to poor. These top 5 suits were stitched and designed to see ready effects of design. The cutting of suits was done directly on fabric. After cutting, designs were made with the help of prepared screens by using pigment colours. Thereafter, final embellishment was done by using accessories, hand embroidery and patch work. Finally consumers' acceptability and market value of designed suits were determined. Designed Khadi Suits were pleasing and attractive to respondents. Hence, they were ready to pay more than the estimated cost of the suits. Thus, on the basis of results, we can say that designing of Khadi Suits with unique with attractive colour combination made by using Mugal Motifs is a successful technique.
