Gaurang Shah/ Shravan Kumar/ Vivek Kumar at LFW W/F 2013

Patan Patola, the gorgeous fabric from Patan in Gujarat was the 'star' of Gaurang Shah's collection called "Stridhan".The Patolas considered auspicious because of the colours and designs are part of a woman's Stridhan or treasure during her marital journey. For Shravan Kumar, fashion, he states is a religion not a profession; so it was this passionate desire that encouraged the designer to present a collection in bold unconventional fabrics .Vivek Kumar's collection for his Ritika label was a stunning line called "Kirtimukha" at Lakmé Fashion Week Winter/Festive 2013. "Kirtimukha" which means protector deity and a threshold guardian has dual appearances, which were reflected and rendered beautifully by Vivek in his collection.
