Twin sisters, Riddhi & Siddhi Mapxencar got the idea for their Lakmé Fashion Week Summer Resort 2013 collection when they visited Sri Sri Ravishankar’s ashram in Banglore.
Waxing eloquent about their design inspirations, the sisters tell us, “The Upanishads explain to us that the body is like a fabric. It can get dirty but the soul remains untouched. Just as gold cannot be affected by any acid and is deemed the purest metal, which even when it goes through fire, gets only more purified, so also the soul as it goes through the process of yoga and meditation, becomes more pure. We present the collection of SOAN SHRINGAAR – where anchored by gold, every color in life comes alive , to enhance your beauty. The collection is meant to inspire you to go within and be pure in soul like gold and yet enhance the life around you!”
This season, for the first time the duo will experiment with Indo-western silhouettes. Their colour pallatte will consist of shades of cream, emerald green, pink and orange with hints of gold. A lot of fabric texture and detailing would also be seen in the collection.
Look out for their show at 4.30 pm on 23rd march 2013.
