Textile and Fashion Designer Gaurang Shah is set to showcase a collection titled Kalpavriksha at Lakme Fashion Week summer-resort 2015. Kalpavriksha, the ‘wish-fulfilling’ divine tree in Hindu mythology is the inspiration of the designer. The collection also pays tribute to various summer-friendly fabrics.
His collection is a representation of the tree of life woven by the jamdani weavers from Andhra Pradesh and Bangladesh symphonized with phulkari, kalamkari and chikankari.
One will see a transcendental jugal bandi between jamdani, phulkari, chikankari and kalamkari on the clothes that strikes an exquisite balance between heritage heirloom and contemporary designs.
From flowy anarkali to ghaghras and saris, there will be everything for every age group.
It is yet another presentation of Indian Textile innovation by involving his signature technique Jamdani, a discontinuous extra weft art that is intricately handcrafted. Gaurang is confident that this collection and the presentation settings in the hall will wow the audience.
Gaurang promises to show diversity of different fabrics through his show at the five day fashion extravaganza which is scheduled to take place from March 18 at Palladium hotel in Mumbai.
