Neelanjan Ghosh with the theme inspired from ‘Colonial Influence on Kolkata- past or present’. “Babu, Bibi Aar Keta” “The title reflects on the theme, literally as well as conceptually. The motifs used are both visual and iconographic representation of how Kolkata has a strong Colonial influence on every aspect of life and how it has blended to become an indigenous 'Kolkata-ian' culture. Using edgy and hard drapes and strategic placement of pleats and tucks. Using light fabrics and the 3-D feel to the Silhouettes has been credited to creative and smart patternmaking keeping in mind the commercial viability as well as extremely fashionable free thinking - subtle hint of deconstruction. Chanderi, cotton silk and cotton striped fabrics have been played with light thread embroidery and bold appliqués. Motifs like Durga faces, horse carriages, vintage cameras, boats, fishes, playing cards, Buckingham Palace guards, Burlington checks used for embroidery n hues of teal, charcoal, navy, olive, brown, wine bottle green, grey with bold appliqués and multi striped borders using bright colours.
