BRAND PROFILE EVERY COLLECTION IS INSPIRED BY DIFFERENT THINGS. SOMETIMES I AM INSPIRED BY THE NATURE OR THE ENVIRONMENT AND SOMETIMES BY AN ARTIST AND THEIR WORK day wear to evening wear. We have a festive line too that is launched during the festive season only. WHAT KIND OF FABRICS DO YOU USE TO MAKE YOUR CLOTHES? A lot of our fabrics are handwoven textiles. Nevertheless, we make sure to use all natural fibres for our collections. The use of cottons, khadis, silks, organza, denim, wool etc and some part of knitwear in cotton and wool yarns are very prominent in our collections. WHAT MAKES YOUR COLLECTIONS UNIQUE? WHAT DEFINES YOUR CLOTHES? The surface designs and print patterns we create are very unique. Each collection we have is very expressive and has a story of its own. Our USP revolves around art, uniqueness and comfort. 68 I APPAREL I March 2020 WHO OR WHAT INSPIRES YOU? Every collection is inspired by different things. Sometimes I am inspired by the nature or the environment and sometimes from an artist and their work. Sometimes it is just something that is in my mind. For example, I could be very positive about something like a book that I am reading or an artist that I like. This positivity will turn into an inspiration for me. HOW OFTEN DO YOU HAVE NEW COLLECTIONS AND HOW DO SEASON INSPIRE YOU? We mostly have two main collections each year - Spring Summer and Fall Winter. There are some capsule collections that we launch in between seasons and introduce it around the year. This includes the launch of the festive line. WHICH HAS BEEN THE MOST CHALLENGING COLLECTION TO DATE AND WHY? Every collection comes with its own set of challenges. There is no particular collection that has been overtly challenging so far. We try and bring something new every season and though this means we have to face a new set of challenges, we continue to work very hard on each collection.
