The lively hues made for a visual delight. The collection took an inspiration from the rich heritage of India’s North Eastern tribal art and embroidery. The colorful thread work seen on the borders were not only vibrant but lent an interesting dimension to the outfits.

Ponchos paired with sarees made for an interesting combination. Apart from sarees, the collection also featured asymmetrical as well as ankle length kurtis and dhoti pants. The use of appliqué stripes on the sarees not only gave them a modern touch but also added dimension to the solid colors.
