India is the custodian of tradition and heritage, and celebs from all over the world have Indian fashion on their minds. Closer home, fashion labels are embracing heritage trends that define the artistic diversity of the nation. Design labels are paying homage to the time-honored Rajasthani or Banjaran (bohemian) trends that showcase a versatile statement of the state's cultural elegance. Banjarans being nomads or gypsies they travel far distances and live life off the edge. Nevertheless, the Banjaran style exudes an earthy, artsy, boho look that represents cultural elegance.

As a testament to grandeur and a celebration of its timelessness, we peep into the traditional collections of Rajasthani ensembles and jewellery by design houses that are a part of this cultural odyssey.
