How much do we know about our Indian weaves? The 35th Surajkund International Crafts Mela in the capital, got us acclimatized to saris and weaves from different Indian states. Be it Paithani from Maharashtra or Jamdani from Bengal, the fashion show organized by the Fashion Design Council of India (FDCI) had it all. 11 leading Indian designers showcased their craft-soaked creations, accentuating the sari and giving it a contemporary rendition.
Titled “My Handloom My Pride”, the event was organised in association with DC (Handlooms) and Haryana Tourism. Shri Manoj Sinha, Lieutenant Governor, Jammu & Kashmir was the Chief Guest.
