Handwoven, Handmade!

Who can forget the gorgeous georgette delicate printed dress that Duchess Kate Middleton wore? The prints inspired from ancient Rajasthani motifs by Anita Dongre created a furore and got the cash box jiggling with orders for it pouring from all over the world. Called the Gulrukh Tunic Dress, it is a great example of how Indian sensibility sits perfectly in international fashion conclaves. It can be called a future progression of traditional Indian fabrics—handwoven, handcrafted and embroidered—moving beyond their traditional boundaries to embrace international fashion.
