An Indian Summer ~ Engagement Editorial
June 2017
East-meets-West is a recurring motif in our work, where we derive from the best of both worlds. A beautiful intersection of Indian and American cultures, this editorial is a make-believe trip of an Indian prince from Jaipur. As he shows his American fiancé around and introduces her to the sights and sounds, the palaces and bazaars of the vibrant Rajasthan, what emerges is their love story built on shared values. She hasn’t been to India before, but is already falling in love with our cultural chaos and creativity. We marry Indian fashion with western seperates, jewellery with riding pants and classic white shirts. It also reflects our collaboration with Sabyasachi, Tarun Tahiliani, Rohit Bal, Raghavendra Rathore and reputed jewellers such as Umrao Jewels who all come together to create this thing of beauty.
