Stunning in silk: From the looms of Assam

September 11, 2015

Fashion designer Sanjukta Dutta from Guwahati, Assam showcased a beautiful collection of hand-crafted two-piece Mekhela Chadors at the recently concluded Mysore Fashion Week 2015.

The silk Mekhela Chadors had traditional Assamese motifs inspired by nature, flora and fauna and other geometrical shapes.

In a variety of coloured silk threads. Pooja Bhamrah showcases one such creation.

Including traditional Muga silk.

Dayana Erappa shows a multi-coloured creation.

An all-blue creation styled like a sari.

We love this colour combination Sony Kaur is showing.

A maroon silk with the chador worn like a stole on both shoulders.

How to wear red and yellow.

Alesia Raut strikes a pose in a lovely off-white orange combination.

Dutta accessorised her looms with ornamented turbans, like this one modelled by Sucheta Sharma.

Modern meets tradition.

This one's a bridal beauty.

Three cheers for the designer!
