Light colours, glass highlight Kavita Bhartiya's fashion line

New Delhi, Aug 25 Light pinks, sky blues, steel greys, pista greens add the ethereal touch to the glass-embellished collection of fashion designer Kavita Bhartiya who showcases her edition at the Wills India Fashion Week and at a Paris show next month.

Bhartiya, who has named her collection 'The Glass House', will show her collection at the Sep 5-9 Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week and the Prêt-a-Porter at Paris Sep 6-9.

"I have called my collection 'The Glass House' as glass and transparent embellishments have been extensively used while endorsing the silhouettes," Bhartiya told IANS during a preview of the line here.

"Everything around me has been the source of inspiration for this collection. The silhouettes retain a structured frame of mind, yet imbibing something for everybody, from the cocoon to the sheath," she added.

Her collection has gold and silver geometric prints on fabrics like chiffon, georgette, cotton-lurex, silk-lurex and foil overlay on linen and satin. The angular embroidery on the outfits is inspired by Islamic tessellations.

"As the face of Indian fashion is changing rapidly and becoming more global hence the designs, cuts and embroidery on silhouettes are contemporary," said Bhartiya.
