After making her debut at India Runway Week, celebrity designer Mithi Kalra is all set to launch a Punjab inspired collection.
Titled ‘Barkat Punjab’ the collection is celebrating the moods of a girl from Punjab who wishes to look traditional as well as contemporary.
The new Indian bride has stepped out of the tradional way of dressing and has adopted comfortable as well as contemporary look.
According to Mithi Kalra,”I am a Punjabi and so I took inspiration from my own culture. I have used shades from the smokey palette like black, grey, silver and at the same time have used bright colours like yellow, coral and blue, as my collection is for the people from all walks of life”
The fabrics used in the bridal collection were silk velvets and nets blended with dabka and mirrors.
Every bride needs a couple of those pieces in her trousseau which comes handy when she has to mix and match be it with a kurta or anarkali or just a chiffon saree draped over a legging.
Today, bridal wear has a vast spectrum, it not only includes those heavily embroidered lehengas and embellished sarees but it has a good mix of Rich Anarkalis with Ethnic Skirts, subtle yet rich Crop Tops with Lehengas paired with beautiful capes.
