Review
Urvashi Kaur’s ‘Pathika’ displayed a creative exploration that synthesizes traditional Indian textiles with the dynamism of contemporary styling.
The silhouettes were flowy yet structured. Slight hues of light and airy colours like ecru, cream and dusty white were infused with grey and hints of blush. The silhouettes came to life with the use of and ethnic weaving technique Jamdani along with other techniques of Shibori and Kantha. Fabrics like Khadi, wool, denims, cotton and linen were graced with tie-dye motifs crated using the dip dyeing technique.
Impressions of peek-a-boo knife pleats and cleverly placed accordion pleats were also hinted at in the compilation. Clothes like the grey chevron maxi with pleating featured a wide border and the mute pink asymmetrical jumpsuit with a solitary sleeve along with the Obi-belted sleek saris complemented the collection with sophistication.
