Concept

Divyamani B L’s Gharchola collection draws on the dress traditions of Rajasthan: vibrant colour, bandhani print, shawls and mirror-lace handwork.

The collection is made in bandhani-print fabric with mirror lace.

On the back panel of the men’s garment is a hand-painted artwork of Lord Krishna.

The making

From sketch to stitch

Four stages in the KIDAT studio: the drawing, the paper pattern, the cut fabric and the sewing machine.
