Ace designer Urvashi Kaur stunned the spectators with her marvelous
collection entitled ‘SEMAH’on the 1st day of Wills lifestyle fashion
week Spring /Summer 2014, which epitomized the state of trance in harmony with nature and all
its elements. The Collection seemed to celebrate the three unified states of
human nature- the mind (as knowledge and thought), the heart (through the
expression of feelings, poetry and music), and the body (by activating life, by
turning).
The organic feel was highlighted by a restrained palette of
colors encompassing natural dyes like indigo, reds, greys, ochre, and ecru.
The silhouettes were brought to life with the use of
indigenous hand-woven organic textiles from Kutch and Andhra. Sheer cotton
weaves like Kota , mulmul, chanderi and linen lend fluidity to the collection.
Engineered placements of twisted tie/dye technique evoked
the 'Bandhej'. Mosaic styled geometric patterns derived by block prints paired
with rouching/pleating technique along with versatile separates with touches of
volume and movement in drapes set a dramatic rhythm.
Tunics with asymmetric folds and hemlines, angarkha inspried
Djellabas and long voluminous tops and dresses were the mainstay of the
collection. Peplum vests, wrap jumpsuits along with cowelled shalwars, farsi
pajamas and pleated shararas confirm to the mystical vibe.
