The collection is about evoking those childhood dreams of a romantic fairytale, to capture that mood that makes a bride feel beautiful and special. This season features elegant silhouettes, softly sculpted silks, luxurious velvet and fitted French lace. Intricately beaded bodices are paired with ‘Handsome Prince’ sherwani’s; leggings with jewels exude this old world glamour, with a hint of bohemian beauty.
Evening wear is strong, sexy and quintessentially feminine. There are lingerie inspired gowns, body con floor length dresses adorned with crystals. These eye catching aesthetics are for a modern bride who appreciates romantic detailing on a relaxed silhouette.
The rainbow is the colour palette, in signature silk jersey and with zardozi to highlight. Luminosity is ornamented with thick thread that weaves in French lace. The shapes are contradictory, harsh and flowy but with a distinct undertone of a deep sensual sexuality.
About Monisha Jaising:
“I believe that there is new era in bridal fashion at the moment, it’s all about individual and personal style, mixing old with the new, masculine with feminine, sport with glamour basically there are no rules...I have always believed that fashion can be bought but style is in your DNA" Over 22 years ago, Monisha Jaising launched her first collection of 21 outfits, at Ensemble. Resort wear has always been her focus and thus, her extensive and exotic travel destinations have been an important aspect of developing this aesthetic. But at the core, India remains the staple inspiration behind her design and colour palette. Till today she begins drawing out her collection by starting with a Kurti. The relaxed ease of island living with high creativity has been at the center of her design philosophy, with the ultimate aim of creating something that is effortlessly chic.
She is a designer by nature, but also enthusiastic about design holistically. She is also passionate about art, modern architecture and music too. Through the years her passion has strengthened, and she is humbled to be a part of the industry and in a profession she is excited to wake up to everyday.
