Sabyasachi Mukherjee is all set to scorch Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week’s (WIFW) finale with a collection inspired from the 1960s and 1970s style that focuses on retro rock.
The designer has named his mainstream collection 'Ode to Modernism’ and speaking about his collection, the designer revealed that the sheer textures used for the entire range is Indian handcrafted fabrics.
"The collection is inspired from the 1960s and 1970s style in the international market. The silhouettes will be sports meets retro-rock on a colour palate which varies from black and white with a mix of super bright colours as well. But the entire range uses Indian handicraft fabrics like textured khadi, a little bit of zardosi, beaten and burnt crystals and lace," stated the designer.
Sabyasachi Mukherjee doesn’t believe in showstopper concept
Fashion designers love using Bollywood celebs to showcase their clothes and even recently designer Joy Mitra made Sharmila Tagore the showstopper for his show on Day 2 of the Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week.
However, when Sabyasachi was asked whether his favorite celebs Vidya and Rani would be the showstoppers for his show, the designer stated that he doesn’t believe in that concept.
"I don't know because both Rani and Vidya are working for their respective movies. Vidya is working on a very difficult movie called 'Dirty Picture' and Rani is doing a film with Aamir (Khan).
“Also I have never believed in the show-stopper concept. For me, clothes are the showstoppers. Yes, Bollywood celebrities come to watch my show, but I have never made an effort to present them on the ramp,” the designer said.
Sabyasachi Mukherjee to introduce a pret line for kids
Sabyasachi who’s collection has always been noted for the textures and craftsmanship will soon be bringing out a well enhanced pret line for kids.
The designer stated that nowadays kids’ clothes in the market are boring and doesn’t have an element of patterns.
Speaking about opening a pret line for kids, Sabyasachi stated, “The kind of clothes children are offered nowadays is a bit boring and this is the reason why I want to bring a revolution in terms of creativity and design. There are many designers who are doing it in the West and we need to bring the same approach here by presenting a collection that will not only be ethnic but also Indian.”a
