ETHNIC TALES
Timeless with a mix of rock sensibility and old-school savoir-faire, Arjun Khanna’s latest collection is a reflection of his signature style that is embodied by handcrafted elegance and fine tailoring.
The collection is an assembly of jackets, bandhgalas, bundis, and sherwanis. The predominant use of Chinese embroidery, dori and cutwork, further enhanced with delicate pearls and crystals on pure silk, linens and jacquard in whites, ivory and indigo, make this edit perfect for special occasions this season. The collection also features vintage floral designs, stripes, fine buttas, and abstract textures.
With a view to provide a head-to-toe styled look, Arjun Khanna rounds up the the Winter Edit with a capsule collection inspired by the Yao Tribe of the Golden Triangle. Jackets in crushed natural Irish linens, washed cotton denims, and old indigo fabrics embellished and embroidered with satin silk thread and cord-work form a part of the range.
