Its that time of the year again when the latest from the fashion studios gets launched on the ramps with seasoned and emerging designers showcasing their creativity and innovation.

Highlights

The eclectic designer sisters Sukriti&Aakriti have always adopted sustainability and eco-consciousness in their collections, and have time and again proved luxury has nothing to do with extravagance. Their Neo-Phulkari collection is about this concept of festive sustainable wear. The cuts are relaxed, and they bring wearability to the ramps. Their latest collection takes from the embroidery technique Phulkari from Punjab, which literally translates to ‘flower work’.

traditionally too, Phulkari is worn to celebrate a wedding or joyous occasion. The vibrant and playful art compliments the contemporary Indian wear silhouettes.

“While luxury is admired with the idea of extravagance, we believe that conscious fashion is more luxurious and have strived to translate this notion of sustainability into our collection. Neo-Phulkari is a unique spin on the vibrant handicraft and encapsulates regality in the form of relaxed silhouettes that can be taken from runway to reality and are more wearable.”
