In the quiet attic of her Lahore home, Zara discovers her late father's dyeing journals filled with indigo stains, turmeric formulas, and whispered wisdom. What begins as a college assignment becomes a transformative journey across continents, cultures, and emotions.

Zara sets out to design eight dresses: one signature piece rooted in the traditions of Pakistan, and seven inspired by the fashion, spirit, and soul of each continent. From the bold Ankara prints of West Africa to the samba rhythms of Brazil, the denim grit of North America to the velvet rebellions of Europe, each chapter unveils a new dress and a new layer of Zara's identity.

She weaves ancestral barkcloth from Oceania, layers kantha-stitched saris across Asia, and even finds poetry in Antarctica's silence. Every chapter features a beautifully imagined sketch of the dress, blending traditional techniques with modern textures and emotional insight.

The Daughter of Rangrez (Dyer) is a short story for readers of all ages. It celebrates creativity, heritage, and the quiet magic of home, where fabric becomes a language and every thread tells a story.

Perfect for anyone who believes that art can carry memory, and memory can transform us.
