True to their roots in materials and details, yet contemporised in cut and fit, women’s fashion in the subcontinent is going through a subtle renaissance, spearheaded by ethnic-inspired labels and collections geared towards the modern Indian woman who is confident in her identity and experimental in her style. Committed to this trend transformation is the Raro House Of Fashion, whose flagship store in Delhi brings together two designer brands—Matsya, Utkarsh Ahuja’s label of couture trousseau for the unconventional bride, and Basanti Ke Kapde, which reimagines ethnic off-therack daily wear and occasion wear with contemporary silhouettes and styles. Together, the two brands provide a modern spin on traditional women’s clothing. The spirit of reinvention and ingenuity ties the two labels together, despite their difference in focus and expression.
