Project : Bikaner Weaving
Since the younger generation has started gravitating towards the handloom, there is a need for younger colours to be made readily available. There is a need to introduce more texture in the fabric which changes the feel of the textile. The modern textiles should be a reflection of our age old craft. I have designed 6 handwoven swatches in Bikaner to make garments to be sold in the domestic market. I have used bolder colours for the checks and stripes to create a perfect semblance of the new trends and old heritage.
Target age group : 25-35 years old
I took inspiration from 1980's cassette covers,
in terms of colour and the garment construction and added the obvious indi touch.
