Collection Note
She is Innocence.
Adorning herself for a sacred moment, readying herself for a divine ritual, a loving promise that will change her forever. Water and milk anoint her, purify her, prepare her. Turmeric and sandalwood paint her, perfume her, bless her. She is a dream in creamy ivories, a moving sculpture in delicate marble. She is all skin and shyness, with flashes of curiosity and wonder, awaiting her beloved.
She is Mischief.
Teasing and feisty, artful and whimsical, a free spirit tamed by her own joyful heart. She dives into forgotten memories, searching for stories woven in cloth, tales written in thread. She is a vision in radiant ochres and mossy greens, all laughter and play, with moments of sweet defiance. An arched brow, a quiet wink, a dimpled smile. She is as much chaos as calm, as much sweetness as spice.
She is Passion.
Savagely beautiful, fiercely feminine, a woman rapturously in love. She waits, brimming with tenderness and ardour, ready to embrace her new life. Chants reverberate deep into the earth, swelling through the corridors of her heart; the holy fire burns both outside and within. She is a rhapsody in deep, powerful crimsons, with blazes of fiery purple. She is both princess and queen, lover and beloved, disciple and goddess.
She is Sindoori.
Sindoori is a very special, lovingly crafted couture collection that heralds a new dawn for the brand, that paints a dream of colour and memory.
