Designer Debarun to present BadastooR line at LFW

To interpret this inspiration, Debarun has used a colors palette comprising of beige, ivory, red  and nude tones. The choice of this palette symbolizes the essence of Ba-Dastoor in terms its classical ethos and ethereal fee. 

The fabrics are tassar silk, cotton kora, viscouse silk, velvets and matka silks as they were the apt choice to bring to life the grandeur of the a traditional story being told and retold through the ages. As for the silhouettes Debarun choose to vary it across classic and neo-classical Indian silhouettes again reinstating the elegance of the the word, Ba-Dastoor, while ensuring that it remains timeless and across the ages.

The collection comprises of sarees, lehengas, layered dresses, churidar suits as these have been and will be reminiscent of any eternal story at every point in time not only today but even after a century.

For the men, Debarun has chosen short jackets teamed with kurtas, band gala's, long flared coats and sherwani inspired suits to take you back in time and remind you of elements which are eternal. The collection draws inspiration from motifs which are geometric as well as ornamental. Leveraging on Debarun's strength at synchronising the structured geometric motifs with the fluency of traditional motifs, the combination highlights the eternal feel of Ba-Dastoor traversing across time from the past and seamlessly merging into the present. The motifs provide glimpses of an era gone by while reinstating the relevance of these glimpses in the present day.

A wide variety of techniques including block prints, over-dying, hand embroidery and applique has been Debarun's choice for this collection using an aged and matt finish to highlight the influence of the classical while infusing it with the contemporary. The collection is a rediscovery in the past while reinstating that the eternal stories do not lose their charm but only reinvent themselves in a splendid new avatar.
