About Me

My photo
Hello folks. I am Priyanka and you are on my blog right now (which makes me super happy)! I work as a senior fashion journalist with the biggest newspaper in the country and this blog allows me to voice my ever-elusive love for everything fashionable and beautiful in life (in my free time that is). It all started while I was studying literature during my graduation, I realised how much I enjoy writing; which led me thinking, journalism would be my perfect career match. I started off with internships at fashion magazines and newspapers and developed a flair for lifestyle writing. My love for fashion, beauty, style and trends, food, et cetera only increased by leaps and bounds after I enrolled for my masters in journalism. And since then I have been meaning to have my very own blog, wherein I could share my insights and connect with like minded readers!

Shree Raj Mahal Jewellers India Couture Week 2014-Day 2

Inspired by the iconography of gota work of Rajasthan, designer Rina Dhaka takes her designs to a whole new level this time at the India Couture Week, day 2! Her outfits look regal with undertones of her matchless aesthetics and soft sensual appeal. In her latest collection, the designer has re-created a new sense of style for the gota patti work, placed delicately, contouring sequined sheers and lace. Her designs surfaced convoluted embroidery elements from Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh, laid lovingly in a lace like manner.

Techniques of zardozi, kamdani, ari and lace and metallic gota have been juxtaposed with tonal beading and soft embroidery to create a saga of romance. Gota patti and zardozi are set against lace backdrop, contrasted by Mughal animal paintings, depicted on fur-lined velvet capes.
