Designer Payal Singhal unveiled her winter festive with a rose pink silk off shoulder choli and lehenga edged with scalloped hemlines and beautiful zardoszi embroidery.
Designer’s latest collection, ‘Pakizah’, explored the beauty of pure unadulterated design. The line goes back to the basics and featured Indian wear that is contemporary yet timeless and elegant. Clean and minimalistic cuts in fabrics like silk, raw silk and mul stay true to the designer’s vision, as do the pearl and mukaish embroidery in classic patterns. The silhouettes seamlessly merged the traditional and the modern with off-shoulder cholis and lehengas, cold shoulder kurtas, scalloped hemlines and low crotch pants that are paired with Anarkali kurtas.
A colour palette of earthy hues – sand, dusk blue, pale pink, grey and black – evoke a sense of nostalgia and old-world charm. Keeping in tune with the principle theme of pure and authentic design, the collection was replete with an interplay of floral and geometric patterns.
