Amalraj Sengupta's Stylish Options To Both Sexes

Summer/Resort 2013; Amalraj Sengupta offered a great fashion collection to
stylishmen and women.
With customised woven, hand spun and hand dyed yarns as the basis of the
garments,the fabric story revealed a superb degree of high fashion.
Inspired by the Mauri tribes of New Zealand, Amalraj brought to the ramp;
effects of snake skins and tattoos of the warrior tribes. Using blends of khadi
linen,silk, khadi and cotton, Amalraj allowed the coloursto move from red to
yellow, grey, mid blue and then onto off‐white and finally jet black. Simple yet
androgynous at times in appearance, the garments had a definite fashion
direction forthe coming season.
Opening the show with a yellow striped/plain bundi and kurta, Amalraj
brought in a sheer organza kurta with a pleated yoke and grey striped
waistcoat for men's wear. The sleeveless black jacket, a well tailored maroon
striped coat and kurta shirt with double breasted bundi were interesting
additionsforthemasculine wardrobe.
Women's wear too had some edgy cuts, as grey asymmetric peplum
jacket/pants, a yellow drop waist maxi, hipster linen pants and kurta gave
fusion looks. The horizontalstriped elephant pants with tunic, the maxi pencil
skirt,the elegant maroon striped asymmetric coat and the tuxedo style shirt in
black organza had a delicate androgynous appeal.
Amalraj Sengupta's bespoke "Tailor" collection "The Tribe" offered great
stylish options to both sexes with a variety of cuts, construction and colours.
