With the above momentous phase we have come up with the idea of asha gautam masterpiece. These pieces are made of techniques which require high degree of skills, perseverance and detailing. Each piece take months in making and this is why we are calling it a MASTERPIECE. As designers we lust these craft and we want these skills to be sustained and passed on to next generation. India is the ONLY country in the world that still has these skills and craft and as designers; we want to make an impact by focusing on it exclusively. Lastly we will be working on other crafts as well but as per now our focus is on three crafts:
- Banarasi
- Paithani
- Bandhani
This collection has been inspired from nature and its surroundings and this is why lot of elements like flowers, trees, peacocks, birds are seen. Some designs revolve around folk art reminiscing of vintage charm. Lot of new weaving process and techniques have been applied to make the collection relevant for today.
Highly twisted silk yarns are used with zari to make the saree more drape friendly and even linen is woven in a different manner to make it more conducive for lehengas. Patola art is used to weave saree in Banaras and then bandhan is done to create something exceptional. Colour story goes from radiant shades Aurora red, bottle green, Dandelion yellow, Geranium pink to pastels such as Hemlock green, Opal green to mint.
This collection will make a textile connoisseur proud, textile enthusiast happy, saree lover excited, craftsman emotional.
