Western Influences on Indian Fabrics

Soltee AW15

What happens when the European art meets Indian vibrancy? Well, it creates something that is soothing to your eyes and worthy of everyone’s attention. The incredible vases inspire our latest collection. No matter what form they are, they are artful and each one has a story to tell. Inspired by the delicacy, art and class of vases, the House of Soltee by couturier Sulakshana Monga presents its new Autumn/Winter 2015 collection.

Soltee AW15

Abiding by our philosophy of ‘beauty is in details’, our brand new collection has pieces flaunting detailed embroidery and pattern. Expect breezy dresses to strong silhouettes, and backless gowns to drapes this season; AW15 collection is anything but narrow. The beautiful natural floral prints are blended with Indian sensibilities, casting an exotic look to the collection.

We have played around with International watercolors from genres of rose pink, champagne, beige, subtle peaches, olives and hues of oranges. Giving shape to the outfit are fluid fabrics like net, rayon crepes and cotton. The collection is perfect amalgamation of Indo-Western classic fusions intricately embroidered with unique classic methods of asymmetric detailing on gowns, lehengas and dresses.

Redefining modernist twists to traditional tales, her gorgeous attires spoke sheer class. Taking basic silhouettes to newer levels, her collection was indeed a visual treat.

Sulakshana’s take on her latest designs was simple—she thrived to blend aesthetics of vintage royalty with youthful flamboyance. Discovering a focal point between experimental drapes and bold embroidery, it caters to both, the young bride and the conventional woman.

With undertones of ethnic inspiration, the collection brings forth floral prints delicately floating on semi-textured fabrics, all based in rich shades of extravagance. The brilliant palette of silver and gold creates a neutral canvas with bold hues of ruby, blush- pink and sapphire.
