Mumbai, 25^th August 2019:

Rajdeep Ranawat, Delhi Based designer showcased his latest Winter Festive collection– ‘Sindh’ – on the final day of Lakme Fashion Week WF 2019

Rajdeep Ranawat is known for adding a contemporary twist to traditional ethnic styles, and his latest collection Sindh perfectly captured the soul of the Mughal era.

Sindh resonated the opulent beauty of Mughal times and was fused with the bold embellishments and motifs of Kutch, the bandhani techniques of Bhuj and traditional weaves of Balochistan. The designer combined these strong ethnic themes from Western India and beyond effortlessly in the collection that combined the royal regalia of Emperors with the poetic notes of ancient cultures.

In the Sindh collection, Rajdeep’s asymmetrical tunics, dhotis, skirts, trench coats and sheer cover-ups conjured up the flamboyant grandeur of the Nawabi era. He has used contemporary techniques in printing and embellishments like Swarovski crystals with lacquer finishes. Swarovski India has been associated with Rajdeep Ranawat since 2000 and continues to support the designer for all his new creations year after year.

Rajdeep shares- “The collection is inspired by the woman who is an urban nomad with a sense of luxury and confidence. Sindh is reminiscent of the mists of time, rooted in the present. Showcasing at LFW has always been a great experience! It was absolutely heart-warming to see the people understand & appreciate the designs and the concept behind them.”

Bejewelled motifs from the Taj Mahal told a story of eternal love and echo Rajdeep’s enduring theme of ‘art to wear’.

That’s not all. French high-fashion brand Ceriz had also collaborated with the designer for his Sindh collection, to recreate footwear that completed the classy look of the designs.

The Garnish Co. known for their one-of-a-kind handbags have collaborated with RR for coordinating Bags whereas Bana Studio from Delhi played a vital role in the jewellery for the campaign shoot.

Kitchen Therapy from Ahmedabad known for their scrumptious organic savouries had beautifully created eatables for the gifting as well.
