‘Meira’ – Between Two Worlds by Disha Doshi Gandhi’s
Mumbai, September 2017: Mumbai-based couture designer Disha Doshi Gandhi’s Winter Festive 2017 collection is nothing short of sheer magnificence. It is the perfect melange of contemporary styles and a traditional essence, perfect for the women of today. The line of designs is clean, classy, and comfortable and is now available in stores across the India.
The use of folk-inspired bright hues and toned down whites and golds make this collection a treat to the eyes. Dark and broody neutrals juxtaposed with serene pastels reflect the beautiful story that the designer is trying to tell through her creation. For this collection, she has used ethnic folk embroidery styles like ‘Kantha’ that has its roots in rural West Bengal.
