Noted designers like Archana Kochchar, Rina Dhaka, Ramesh Dembla, Abhishek Dutta, Niki Mahajan, Sayantan Sarkar and Ritu Kumar along with a host of emerging designers exhibited their talents on stage in the four days of Bangalore’s tryst with fashion.

This fashion extravaganza has been conceived, produced and promoted by Dream Merchants, an event management company that is head quartered in Bangalore.

Renowned Kolkata based designer Sayantan Sarkar displayed a spectacular collection for men and women. The theme and nature of the collection is described as, “The collection celebrates the mental confusion of the gender blenders who are yet to discover themselves. To be or not to be is therefore, a primary question in their life….. They live through the initial struggle and evolve finally as a refined whirlpool of self discovery.”

Bohemian Quotient

The collection was a reflection of the designer’s astounding aesthetics which he has developed over a period of years in the fashion industry. Pops of colours and quirky prints with contemporary silhouettes lent a bohemian vibe to the resort wear collection.

Men looked dapper in the batik printed kurtas and silk jackets with double breast-pockets and contrast piping on the cuffs and collar.

A subtle androgynous element was present throughout the collection. Women sashayed the ramp wearing asymmetrical dresses with chiffon jackets and pin stripes. The colour story comprised of mustard, peach, and brown, hints of blue, aquamarine, and neutral shades like white and black.

An eclectic mix of colours and cuts completed to perfection was a collection that defined the modern bohemian globe-trotter in all respect.
