Sania Maskatiya – Isfahan
Their new spring summer evening wear line had everyone swooning. The signature Sania Maskatiya embroideries must have done the trick! The elegance and mystique of the ancient East heavily embraced the collection along with an implemented vibrancy and aesthetic that spoke to today’s time. From subtle pastels to bold jewel shades right down to the neoclassical silhouettes, every piece made it to someone’s wish lists! Their lehenga choli’s were definitely a win for us!

Zara Shahjahan – Adab
We absolutely loved the sentiment behind this collection. Not only was it an ode to a four hundred year old story, but it was a revival of the Laknavi women’s poise and beauty that allowed the city to be called “The Golden City of the East.” Leave it to Zara Shahjahan to have us transported into a different era, and leave us inspired. A decorated display of kamdani, gota, chickankari and zardozi work fashioned out of organza and silk fabrics. From pastels to bolds, this collection swept everyone off their feet!
