It is not unusual for designers to adopt a theme in their fashion repertoire but it is rare that one shows how basic principles transgress into various other disciplines.
Pallavi Jaipur has adopted 'design' as one such principle and she attempts to draw parallels between the architecture of Jaipur and her winter collection.
She has embraced on the fundamental tenet of design which is form and function. Form comes from the city of Jaipur in terms of shapes, cuts, proportions, visuals, materials etc. Function is driven by need which dominates fashion particularly contemporary fashion.
For example geometric proportion like grid layout of the city and visuals of Jantar Mantar is masterfully reflected in her collection with the right dose of colour and styling. In other she pays homage to the mirror work that so wonderfully adorns
Shish Mahal and cleverly brings it out on her silhouettes.
Indeed very simple but revealing about her city, her art and her passion.
