Kolkata based versatile designer Manoj Agarrwal will be showcasing his impeccable collection, “Jodhaa” at Lakme Fashion Week A/W 2017. His surreal collection unveils on Saturday, 19th August 2017 at 4 p.m.

This collection 'Jodhaa' is deeply inspired by two mighty dynasties, the Mughals and the Rajputs. Every ensemble in the collection is a fluent amalgamation, integrating influences from each other- the Mughal's appreciation for the finer things in life and the Rajput's love of beauty, elegance and fine detailing.

The inspiration for Jodhaa was so engrained and carefully thought over, that resulted in beautiful Rajasthani weaves with warm tones of saffron, emerald, copper, brown and henna red costumes, with a red veil epitomizing each ensemble of the collection.

Design motifs like swans, peacocks, flowers, curvilinear pillars with brackets, pottery, chatteris, semi-circular domes, and triangular khaprel roofs with arabesque designs in a mosaic pattern adorn the collection. The garments are richly decorated with semi- precious stones, thread and zari work forming vines and flowers, jaalis and jharokaas embroidered geometrically.

Designer Manoj Agarrwal who known for his impeccable craftsmanship with the finest detailing in hand embroidery comments, “ I feel I have brought to life the long lost magnificence from history and given the modern day bride a perfect rhapsody of glamour and artistry, paying homage to the luxuriousness, grandiosity and glory of the era, one that symbolizes romance.”
