Collage is proud to be showcasing Indian luxury apparel brands which exclusivelyvouches for homespun and sustainable clothing and a continuous quest for mastery.
11.11/eleven eleven sings about using the body as a field of expression while opening a dialogue on a range of dualisms such as modernity and pre-modernity / urban and natural based in the tradition of Khadi.
The fresh line of kalamkari-bandhani garments being launched this season is the fruit of an intervention to integrate two traditional crafts of India, one from the south and the other from the west. The result is a range of exquisite pieces, original and unconventional in their thought and making, designed to bring the age old craft techniques into the contemporary lifestyle through the artwork and silhouettes. The collection presents a range of dresses, shirts, scarves, tops and sarees. Each piece is one of its kind, handled one at a time by different artisans as they transform it into a work of art.
The collection is supported by the brand’s classic bandhani pieces as well as chambray khadi cotton stripes, yarn dyed in natural indigo, which add a fresh and soothing balance to one’s spring summer wardrobe. Mirrorwork, delicate pieces of mirror create a motif of scattered stars across a selection of 200 count handspun hand woven khadi / these nearly sheer garments are perfect for shinning through any season.
