An art as old as time, the traditional Rajasthani
art of Pichhwai inspired this special edition bridal
couture capsule. Centuries ago, Pichhwais were
meticulously painted by hand on fine fabric and
narrated tales from the life of Lord Krishna.
The art of Pichhwai is renowned for presenting
nature in all its glorious detail – an element that
is revisited in all our collections. Intricately
painted by hand, each Pichhwai garment takes
an artist months to create when it’s this detailed.
To the artists, Pichhwai is more than just art,
it is an heirloom that has been passed down through
generations.
Inspired by the lush forests and birds of Rajasthan,
the motifs are hand painted by traditional Pichhwai
artists on rich silks. Embellished with our signature
craft gota patti, our Pichhwai Collection plays
with jewel tone colours of sapphire, ruby and onxy,
and pastel hues reminiscent of the blooming flowers
of Rajasthan.
