From tips to plan an intimate wedding in the new normal to choosing the right outfit for your special day; as the world slowly resumes normalcy, Delhi-based designer and decor expert, Abhinav Mishra chats with Grazia about his latest collection, which features pastel hues, exquisite mirror-work and gota embroidery. Edited excerpts from the interview below:
GRAZIA: Where did you draw inspiration for your latest collection?
ABHINAV MISHRA (AM): Our latest collection, titled ‘The Royals’, is dedicated to the most memorable day in every woman’s lifetime – her wedding. The clothing line is special to me because this time of the year allow us to experiment with pastels hues, which is my signature style and has been a recurring theme in my designs since the inception of the label. There is an underlying story behind each design as every outfit holds a special place in my heart and represents memories and lived experiences from my life. The campaign celebrates special days in a bride’s life – from getting married to spotlighting her bond with her best friends, which, to me, are the foundations of the collection. This new line is a surreal interpretation of those moments, grounded in love and friendship. Even though it is spread across four sub-themes, each represents a different mood, and the entire premise is built on love.
G: What craft techniques have you used in the collection?
