Deepika Govind, one of India’s most innovative designers presents a collection titled Chutney.com, an exclusive range of T-shirts inspired by the flavors of India. Traditional and funky elements combine to form three tee collections: Sporty, Vintage and Hampi Revisited.
The ‘Sporty’ collection has specifically been designed for the traveler who wants to carry with him/her the threads of the Indian experience. This line is in solid colours of red, blue and white with pure-cotton knit. This rugged lifestyle product carries traditional Indian motifs in a contemporary format. Chic, sharp and fitted, they prove to be ideal co-ordinates for the traveler discovering India this summer.
The second line of T-shirts is the ‘Vintage’ collection, which envisions India as an entity stretched in time. Drawing influences from 1947 and merging that with what it is today, the vintage t-shirts are sepia-toned with a delicate jaali dividing an assortment of Indian snapshots – ancient monuments, colloquial catch phrases and popular graffiti.
Deepika’s last line in the Chutney.com Collection is ‘Hampi Revisited’. This line of T-shirts relives the glories of the ancient city of Hampi, a civilization ahead of its time. Distinct feminine cuts characterize this line, which pays a tribute to the city’s austere architecture, finely – crafted jewelry and touches of royalty in a palette of English rose.
The chutney.com collection of India inspired T-shirts is priced between Rs 2500 to Rs 6500.
