India Fantastique Fashion

A dazzling showcase of traditional Indian heritage craft, completely revitalized and reimagined for today's fashion landscape. For the past thirty years, Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla have made their mark on the fashion industry by bringing the best of traditional Indian crafts to the world of high fashion: traveling to remote regions, identifying age-old local arts, and executing them to a couture standard in their stunning collections. Their unique designs encompass details such as Indian mirrorwork, chikan and zardozi embroidery, and Swarovski crystals. Originally published as part of a two-volume set and now available as a stand-alone volume focusing on fashion, this celebratory publication showcases their exuberant talents. On display are dozens of the duo’s classically elegant, feminine designs, including specially photographed close-ups of exquisitely crafted details. 415 illustrations
