IF YOU LOVE: Indulgently textured eveningwear
THEN YOU WILL LOVE: ACQUIRE WHO: Although formally educated in politics and literature, Angelique Raina started working in the Indian fashion industry at age 16. Her career spanned different aspects of brand management, and she ended up in the role of a luxury and brand consultant. Nearly 15 years later, she realised her work mirrored the brand she would eventually create. Her experiments with material texture, colour, and form, while learning by doing, led to ACQUIRE, termed a 'gallery of intrigue'.
WHY: Expanding the possibilities of medium and fit through texture, Raina's pieces are an interplay of smocking, ruching, quilting, and threadwork on statement yet simple womenswear separates. She creates new surfaces by engineering her curiosities into textiles and applying them onto both classic and contemporary silhouettes. Luminous, and often dramatically ruffled or otherwise manipulated, zardozi cotton and linen blends, cotton cambric, poplin, satin, and velvet star as the main characters in ACQUIRE's collections.
