Sugar cubes of summer

Rahul Mishra’s collection playfully flirts with the colours of summer and creates a line that is light andwearable. The music intonates the romantic mood of Spring/Summer. The line is an innovative use ofchanderi cottons – transparent and structure forming quality. The focus is on the organic feel of thefabric and wearibility is kept in mind as the buttoned up dresses reach knee length.
Beautifully pleated turquoise blue and shocking pink dresses team with summery jackets and makefor a big fashion moment. Minimal pleating on trouser waists and jackets to make them fall and standin a certain way is used to advantage.

The colours are soft greys and coffee creams with a suddenburst of black with lotus appliqué showing a blending of Indian ethnic with western silhouettes. Thetransparency of chanderi cottons work wonders to drape asymmetrical dresses forming new andinnovative silhouettes.
Industrial blue chiffon kurta and churidar is worked to give the line a new shape and feel while boxpleats open out to reveal contrasting plackets. Two part dresses with tops in transparent blues and skirtsin shocking pink along with draped ensembles create a dream like quality. Long asymmetrical hems flyaway to create a butterfly wing like silhouette. Indian bandhani is reworked to give it a modern feel.Shaded chanderi fabric is draped and double draped to create the illusion of hide and seek.
