Designer JJ Valaya shares, “It was a pleasure to work with exquisite fabrics in putting together our new line, especially when those fabrics champion sustainability. R/ElanTM fabrics have beautifully complemented our prints and cuts, offering versatility and diverse weights that adapt well to various silhouettes from our stable.”
This season’s collection from JJV. Kapurthala called ‘Char’ (‘- Four in Punjabi) encompassed the perennial spirit of travel dressing for occasions, which also defines the core of the brand ideology.
The JJV.Kapurthala “Char” collection brought the glory of celebrated styles without the burden of heavy embellishments. It was occasion wear inspired by the personal travelogues of the fame Maharaja Jagjit Singh of Kapurthala. The JJV brand with the innovations of R|ElanTM wove a great fashion narrative inspired by a ruler who transcended borders and brought a symphony of cultures, elegance and grace into the country.
For women’s wear the rich multi printed lehengas with discreet, glittering cholis will be ideal traditional wear. The colourful, striped saris with delicate borders, cinched at the waist with the popular Valaya belts were teamed with matching cholis and at times topped with Valaya’s famed Ika jackets. The long, line kurta with traditional circular motifs was cleverly teamed with striped pants in matching colours.
