Team L&M
Encapsulating the sentiments of every new bride and groom, and their new marital beginnings, fashion designer Amrin Khan has launched her new Bridal Couture for 2022- 2023 – Ibtida., meaning new beginnings.
Inspired by her travels across India, the collection embodies many emotions and traditions associated with an Indian wedding. She has woven tradition and heritage with sentiments of a bride and groom starting off on their marital journey. The coaction beautifully showcases rooted traditions and modern approaches in vibrant colours. The silhouettes aim to evoke a sense of romance, devotion, and upliftment that comes along with the joyous occasion of a marriage.
Says Khan, who took three months to complete the collection, “Every collection that comes out of my mind embodies the passions that dwell within, and the inspiration drawn from nature, history and culture. And, Ibtida is inspired by a fusion of Western, Arabic and Indian cultures. The unique designs and subtle detailing of the collection is symbolic of my beliefs that it is important to indulge in the finer things in life. The collection draws inspiration from fusion of Eastern and Western culture, combining delicate embroidery and exquisite hand beading with a number of exquisite fabrics such as chiffon and organza.”
Each outfit is a visual amalgamation of emotions, traditions and new-age bridal couture, and promises to have the couple looking their absolute best on one of the most important days of their lives.
The colour palette plays with traditional bridal colours of deep reds, dreamy off whites, hints of greens, pinks and gold. The fabric used for this collection is pure galicha banarasi silk for upper garment; for the lehengas, we have used handloom raw silk while dupattas come in pure silk organza.
Ibtida features 31 outfits designed to fit the needs of the modern-age bride, groom, and bridal party, and combines regality with unmatched class. Al the designs are available at Ibdita flagship store in Baroda, Gujarat as also on Ibtida and Aza online stores.
