Recognizing the role traditional handlooms and designs play in contemporary fashion, we have over the past months initiated a series of interviews with fashion designers. In this interview we do away with the question and answer format to allow two designers to answer our concerns by weaving the story of their interaction and collaboration with the traditional crafts.
Which crafts have you worked with?
  • khadi fabric in Bhagalpur (Bihar)
  • chikkan kari and mukaish work in Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh)
  • cross stich embrodiery from Kutch
  • ari and sozni work from Jammu and Kashmir
  • crochet and needle point work in Kanyakumai.
