Designer’s Take
Kunal; Rawal-“The silhouettes are dominated by body contouring styles, cuts that shape the body achieving a clean and lean look while adhering to the tone on tone sensibilities of the label. Continuing our tryst with the richest form of embroideries like french knots, we have created patterns that rise up to form a three dimensional visual illuminated with highlights that are ideal for every man’s festive needs. As this collection is inspired from the Global man today, it is definitely not geographically bound and will cater to an audience who connects with our aesthetic. Through this collection, we have kept in mind and catered to all the occasion wear needs of a Man, from deep rooted traditional to modern luxury!”
