Ritu Kumar's line was inspired by the beauty and majesty of the deep woods and the serene mountains of the Himalayan region and was, as all Ritu Kumar lines, a riot of colours.

Kumar used hand-woven fabrics as well as stunning jamavar motifs of Kashmir in the outfits resulting in a stunning contemporary line made out of vintage textiles.

The fabrics ranged from silk to woven shawls in rich deep tones as Kumar converted some of the weaves into prints.

Even as Kumar used traditional Indian weaves, the silhouette of at least a part of the collection was distinctly western ranging from the easygoing and free-flowing to the sharp and formal.
