The collection will be presented in association with kitchen and bathroom specialist Kohler as per FDCI's press release. Expressing his thoughts on the alliance, Narresh said, “The line takes the silhouette language, inspired by the sharp constructs of Kohler's Couture Collection. The colour palette swims in tranquil notes of terracotta, herb greens, aqua and Hollywood pinks.”
Speaking about the association, Sunil Sethi, president, FDCI said, “We are delighted to have Kohler as our partner for this season and the designers blend well with Kolher's creative philosophy. Shivan and Narresh are the future of fashion with more and more women embracing their eclectic swimwear styles; they have introduced magical drapes within this genre, in keeping with what modern women desire for a resort getaway.”
Shivan and Narresh have reinvented swimwear style with their eponymous label, which exudes subtle elements as it takes the six-yard drape to a new level with the lycra and bikini saree.
The new collection draws inspiration from French post-Impressionist painter Henri Rousseau, Barnett Newman, and Italian master Lucio Fontana. Shivan said, “The spring-summer 2016 collection takes forward the artistic language of Mexican artist Diego Rivera and infuses its spirit in a Mediterranean mood for holidays and honeymoons to be recreated at the offsite show.”
The five-day fashion event will be held at the NSCI Ground, Okhla, New Delhi from October 7 to 11. (HO)
