Rina Dhaka's collection - 'Free Spirited Bride' at the IBFW 2013 was a play of textures, embroidery & opulence. There was a beautiful blend of culture and modernity to her collection. Her designs were contemporary but the artwork was ancient.
Patchwork, gotha work and traditional kamdani work ruled her collection. Neutral shades were beautifully paired with brighter hues to give a stark contrast in the outfits. Flared pants and voluminous skirts were the integral part of her collection. High collared multicoloured tops, shimmering net shararas, short anarkalis teamed with beautiful patch work churidaars, appliqué work on net were some of the highlights of her collection. Pinks, reds, nudes, yellows with sheer shoulders were inspired by vintage monuments, jharokas and patti work. Some of the noted ensembles from the collection were- nude jharoka embroidery with sharara wrinkle pants, patchwork pants with angarrakha, patchwork in panchranga, long coat in patti work, gold mokaish sari and also a sari in kamdani work.
Sophie Chaudhary opened the show donned in a beautiful mirror work bustier with an attached panel extending till her navel, teamed up with appliqué patchwork sharara. Prateik Babbar in velvet sherwani with heavy gold work on the shoulders and Amyra in gold and nude colored sharara concluded the show.
Here are few highlights from the show -
