Kolkata: It is a retrospective of fifteen years of her work. it begins with Spring 2010, which she fondly addresses as 'flapper girl goes to the Orient'. It is a pared down, sensual, glamorous take on the 1920 flapper; fabric are chiffon and georgette and silk jersey.
Kiran has used wraps, as the influence of the orient, to add that unique touch. The colour palette is varied. From bright spring hues like corals, lavender, acid lime blood red to muted taupe, jade, washed indigos, ivory and black.
The collection is also showcasing few pieces of her previous collections, including prêt, couture and bridal, along with her first label Kimono, and of course, KUG.
Chitrangada Singh was the Guest of Honour for her show.
About Kiran Uttam Ghosh
Kiran Uttam Ghosh is a designer, who has defined characterization. Her clothes are understated, with silhouettes and characteristic textures that refuse to be bracketed by terms such as Eastern or Western. Her time spent with British designer Jasper Conran imbibed in her the attention to detail that she is now renowned for.
Her label Kiran Uttam Ghosh, goes beyond just a pragmatic prêt, while her couture lime embodies a timeless classic appeal whether it is the sari that she has given new dimensions to or her appeal. Kiran's appeal very much like her work transcends borders and as a result her label has a presence in 8 countries. |
