Varun Bahl’s collection “Flight” represents India’s rich history of textiles

Leading Indian designer Varun Bahl showcased his Fall 2013 Haute Couture Collection entitled 'Flight' to represent India's rich hand-embellishments, embroidery techniques and fantastical textiles during the PCJ Delhi Couture Week 2013 which left the spectators amazed.

Varun mixed mixed his signature embroideries with modern silhouettes, which redefined the concept of embellishment making it more accessible and desirable for the contemporary Indian woman.

Moreover, Varun’s collection this time was not only limited to bridal wear but it also included beautiful collections for bride's family also which was a unique part of the show. In addition to that, he experimented with the apparels quite intelligently and replaced sari-gown with cocktail drape and converted anarkali dress to a daywear option.

Inspired by the exotic birds and their habitat, the ace designer used winter pastels like pale blue, dust pink, powdered moss and luminous tones like ochre, fuchsia and red to complete the offering.

Varun’s  collection ranged from traditional to cutting edge: silk, chiffon, georgette, wool-crepe, bubble-crepe and canvas that came together with diaphanous guaze, organza, and silk net to create garments everlasting in style and design.

Varun Bahl in his collection endeavored the textural contrasts between different weights and compositions of fabrics to bring his vision to life. He used different fabrics in his apparels ranging from bubble crepe, silk, organza, raw silk, silk georgette, tulle, silk net, wool crepe and silk velvet.
