Debashri presents handloom cotton line at LFW

Called “The Black Swan”, Debashri’s inspirations were the fabulous yarns of her beautiful state, which she used creatively for her finely constructed garments.

Using only handloom cottons, the sharply cut jackets, tops and stylish bottom wear were enhanced with Kantha, the delicate craft of West Bengal.

The intricate silhouettes of the creations as they floated down the ramp in strong colours of bright tangerine, fuchsia and blue were a visual delight.

The opening entry was a long lean midi with bolero and tasseled shoulders, the draped asymmetric skirt, and the blouse with the emphasis on the extended shoulders proved interesting.

The lean pants with a one-sleeve blouse, the palazzo/gown and double waistcoat with layered skirt were the highlights of the collection. It was a great debut with an innovative line from Debashri Samanta.
