Review
Swati Vijaivargie’s collection ‘Mauj’ was all about making the best from the waste. The collection was inspired by the unique skill of flat weaving called Kilim and Dhurrie.
Other weaving techniques from Rajasthan, Gujarat and Uttar Pradesh were also seen in the collection. Making the collection look more appealing were the creative placements of the detailing on the ensembles. Motifs were sewn on through appliqué, patchwork and Shibori on fabrics like pure hand woven silks, silk organza, Chanderi, khadi and Kota doriya.
The collection had everything from dhoti and turbans to draped skirt, kurtas, jacket, and cropped tops in shades of beige, ecru, burgundy, maroon , emerald green, Persian blue and black.
Showstopper, Lisa Haydon looked absolutely perfect in a nude coloured cropped top detailed with colourful embroidered motifs paired with a front open, artfully draped skirt with a long kurta jacket.
