A year back at the Lakmé Fashion Week Winter/Festive, there was a grand khadi showcase by three young designers Anuj Bhutani, Gaurav Khanijo and Pallavi Dhyani Khadi and Village Industries Commission (KVIC) on Sustainable Fashion Day. When it comes to fashion Anuj Bhutani is one of the most minimalistic young designers in the business. His silhouettes for men and women are often unisex, thereby giving the garments a more versatile profile. The clean, fuss-free shapes are Anuj’s leitmotif that allows the fabrics to weave their story. Her Khadi creations are inspired by Chandni Chowk’s architecture, colours and people had a marked ethnic touch. The line comprised relaxed salwars, kameezes, dupatta, voluminous kurtas, cool dhotis, saris, scarves and turbans. Hand embroidery played an important part as the garments were etched with delicate patterns. The silhouettes were a great combination of traditional structure and layered styling that resulted in a more contemporary offering of Khadi. Embellishments and detailing played a stylish part as cutwork appeared periodically along with running stitches and elegant draping.
