New Delhi: With the blissful season of spring and summer approaching, Vandy Mehra hosted a preview for Designer Raman Khanna at SBJ, Karol Bagh.
Being a romantic at heart, designer Raman Khanna’s spring summer collection’16 is inspired by romance and thus he showcased long flowy gowns in light breezy fabrics and pastel shades, very delicately embellished with stones and thread, a perfect for the season.
SBJ gave an opportunity
to the visitors to meet the
designer and view his couture
collection; from opulent lehengas
to modern-day minimalist silhouettes
.With the unveiling of the collection
by Raman Khanna, he said “My
collection celebrates the female
form and makes her feel feminine
yet confident. The latest bridal
collection is also all set to make
any woman feel and looks like a
maharani from the golden era”
He quotes from a British novelist “Romance is the glamour which turns the dust of everyday life into a golden haze’
In his ensemble she transcends
into a different world of royalty,
he uses rich fabrics with embroidery
techniques such as ‘dabka mukesh
aari etc. to adorn the lehengas and
odhnis. The colour palette is mostly
of vibrant reds and gold adding a
sophisticated modern feel to the
garments.
“The collection has brought traditional trends back to India. It is good to see the techniques such as dabka mukesh aari.” Ethnic look is back in fashion so is gotta pati work,
mukesh, sequins, stones in dabka
and resham, crystal and Moghul motifs
in understated shimmer. Patch work in
solid colours is also in trend and for the
contemporary women, says Vandy
Mehra, Director, SBJ

and dramatic drapes came together
at this exotic preview to create designs
that are alluring, unique and oh-so fabulous!
