Indian Designers Keeping handcrafted indian Textiles Alive

these indian designers and organizations are preserving ancient weaving arts, turning them into heirloom pieces Rajesh Pratap Singh With roots in Rajasthan, this award-winning designer is based in Delhi . A graduate from NIFT Delhi, he introduced his own line of clothing in 1997, combining the modern with artisanal traditional crafts. His Ajrak prints on linen and handloom weaves in Ikat are…

Muslin, that diaphanous cotton of India, is steeped in a bleak history of colonialism, Imperialism, and human atrocity. That's a way to start a Monday, isn't it? But that's the thing about fashion history.

Looking at a gown like this, which dates from the late 1840s, it's easy to get lost in the beauty: the pattern, the layers, the absolute Romantic gorgeousness.

It is, undoubtedly, a work of art, making use of that thin, breathable fabric, with delicate ruching, a genius use of pattern, and a shape that's reminiscent of the 18th century.

The demand for muslin fabric was immense, bolstered by the impact of the British East India Company, beginning in the 18th century. The finest muslins were from the Dhaka region and 2000 thread count *made by hand*. Starting with Marie Antoinette and her famous chemise a la reine, the craze for muslin among the elites of Europe came at a devastating cost--eventually contributing to the loss of the art and the death of millions of people in the regions.

Because once Europeans figured out how to manufacture muslin on their own (as they did with silk, paisley, pashminas, etc) they stopped all trade with India.

And of course, the great irony is that Europeans didn't just take the art and design, but directly appropriated patterns, styles, and more. There's a reason "question beauty relentlessly" is the Thread Talk motto. Lots more info on the subject over at my blog.

HI DO YOU WANT SOME COSTUBE DRAMA THAT TURNED KINDA WHOLESOME

Pt 1: The Drama

Okay so a long-ass time ago (I think like 15 years), a British costume historian on youtube by the name of Cathy Hay decided she was going to remake 'the peacock Worth gown' and started a kickstarter for it. She made a bunch of money, but the actual work ended up being much more than she expected, so the project kept getting delayed.

In the years after, she befriended the now much more famous Bernadette Banner. They got close enough for cross-Atlantic trips to visit, etc. They were best friends and often joked that they were the same person.

Drama started riling up as people criticized Hay for not engaging meaningfully with the problematic history of the gown in question, which had been made for the wife of a British Governor of India during the 19th century, for a party celebrating British imperialism in India, and the gown's shining feature was Indian embroidery which was almost certainly underpaid, and that embroidery was the massively time-consuming bit that had been delaying her this whole time.

It was a whole thing that she sort of? Tried to address? buuuut The thing is, one of the seemingly obvious ways to manage this conflict would be to coordinate with an Indian embroiderer. In fact, a very accomplished specialist did reach out to her about collaborating on this! And she ghosted him! Maybe even blocked, I don't remember, but the thing was that he was ready and willing to do this cool project that could explore and reimagine a beautiful but morally ugly example of their shared countries' histories.

And she just… kept refusing to engage.

And then people started pointing out the weirdly predatory marketing she had for an online product/newsletter she had, and the discourse kept building as people realized overall that she was just… not as good a person as she claimed to be.

It got bad enough that Banner broke off the friendship, in large part because of that refusal to engage meaningfully with the loaded history of the Worth gown project

Pt 2: The Wholesome

So, a few days ago, Bernadette Banner released a video of her making a Regency gown. It's a very standard kind of project for her, just using old patterns and adding a touch of her own gothic tastes with historical methods to make a cool piece of clothing that explores costume history.

Halfway through, she has a call with someone she is planning to do a different video with. We don't know what the video is, but!

The thing is

The person she is having this call with

Is the Indian embroiderer, Mayankraj Singh, that Cath Hay ghosted.

And the video continues on with Banner and Singh talking about her Regency gown project and just. He ends up making an embroidered chiffon overgown with a crow motif. And it just feels very wholesome and I love to see this all coming back around.

(Okay, double-checked and apparently Hay requested a sample from Singh, and then ghosted him after she got photos of it)

In late September, another costumer, Miah Grace, released a video noting that, in 2020, Hay had requested an embroidery sample from with Mayankraj Singh, founder of the luxury fashion brand Atelier Shikaarbagh. Indian embroiderers in this shop possess skills that go back seven generations. Singh reportedly made a sample made but only sent Hay photos of it. After Hay stopped responding for many months, Singh went live on Instagram to explain what happened. Apparently, when his head embroiderer found the sample, he burned it, and scolded Singh for making it. “He said it was an inauspicious design,” Singh said, “and we do not make it anymore.” Hay later apologized to Singh, and he now considers the matter settled. - Craftsmanship Magazine

Anyway, yeah, after all of that from a few years ago, it was kind of exciting to see Banner collaborating with Singh

And she's so excited to open the package! Happy screaming!

It's so sweet.

He had his team embroider their names on the hem And she loves it

I am living for this vicarious excitement

(She does lay it on a bit thick at the end, but you know what. I'll take it.)

OH and the ending involves her attending the ball with Nami Sparrow, one of the creators of Indian background (Indian-American) that was a voice of Expertise criticizing Cathy Hay a few years ago.

Which is like. Tacit endorsement? If Singh alone wasn't enough.

Anyway yeah I lost my mind a little about this.

Is Dries Van Noten just a designer?

After almost 40 years of Dries Van Noten at the eponymous brand, we need to say goodbye. Who started as a student at the Antwerp Fashion Academy who could sell his shirts to stores like Barneys New York, ended with one of the most unique & famous Belgian fashion houses.

Dries is a storytelling designer who melts aspects of multiple cultures together into a collection, and he does it close to perfect. He takes culturally diverse styles with his signature embroidery & beaded textiles in the traditional folkloric techniques. Techniques mostly used in India, Eastern Europe or Morocco. The craftsmanship behind is the key and take both for the details or fabric. Often a collection can take up to 1000 varieties of garment.

With two years of having a smaller DVN store, Dries opened the store in ‘Het Modepaleis’, a building located in the center of Antwerp, in 1989. For the ‘member’ of the Antwerp Six it came fast. Building success with a unique vibe & atmosphere on the runways & a sophistication to ethnicity. The sense for colours & fabric is what characterizes Dries Van Noten. follow on Instagram for more

✨New✨ Arhi FF: Iss Darr Ko Kya Naam Doon

Summary:

Khushi is an internet famous 27 year old fashion designer from Lucknow. She has a chirpy and childish demeanor yet could not be more mature, brave and compassionate. She is the apple of her father's eye, loves Salman ji, cricket, keeping track of star signs and making jalebis is toh her therapy! She is desperate to expand her business outside the social media and start her own label in fashion. Willing to work hard, armed with her ever sharp wit and an optimistic twinkle in her eye, she is on a serious look out for a big-break opportunity to establish herself in the tough world of fashion business. And this could not happen in the most bizarre manner as she literally falls into it. Who knew ending up at the wrong place, at the wrong time would IN FACT turn out to be the opposite - right place, right time and right....person?

The fashion industry however is dominated by the King of Indian Fashion: Arnav Singh Raizada, popularly known for his bridal and ethnic wear. All of the who's and who of the fashion world in India looks up to the Raizada for its exquisite traditional indian wear. Everyone wants a "Raizada" wedding lehenga for their wedding or anything with the "Raizada" label on it. And now, as the brand gears up to expand globally, Arnav Singh Raizada aka ASR is now on a spree for assembling a team to get this transition right and is looking for someone that would make this re-positioning as a global venture a resounding success. But "life" does not stop happening because you have an obviously important international expansion to make, does it? 

On his trip for a pivotal fashion show (among other things) to Lucknow, a woman practically hijacks his runway and unironically stumbles right into his arms! The design she is wearing comes to be the most celebrated look of the show. It is not a Raizada design but no one has figured it out. This irks him to no end for reasons he isn't able fully understand even though the event is a huge success. Arnav has a legacy of being the best in his business. And being the control freak that he his, he has to ensure that this Lucknowi designer does not get snatched up by his competitors who are always clawing at his throat to get ahead of him. He is known as the King of Indian Fashion for a reason after all!

Read on to find out what happens when Arnav drags Khushi to Delhi to work for him and these two crazies struggle to overcome some critical personal and creative differences while working together. Will this choice be the worst decision of their lives? Will it be the beginning of their doom or the start of something new?

Author’s Note:

Iss Darr Ko Kya Naam Doon is a combination of "fix-it" and "canon-based" fanfiction of an Indian TV show from 2011 called Iss Pyar Ko Kya Naam Doon which is about lead protagonists Khushi played by Sanaya Irani and Arnav played by Barun Sobti.

It is an old-fashioned romance style in a progressive setting. The story takes place in 2023 of Lucknow and Delhi. The language used here is a mixture of English and Roman English. The essence of all the charachters remains same except for a few changes made to make them more progressive and relatable. Khushi and Payal are educated and modern individuals who were brought up in a traditional middle-class environment. Nani belongs to an old Rajasthani royalty that no longer exists and Arnav has immediate paternal roots in an old Nawaabi family from Lucknow. Arnav and Khushi's encounters will be less toxic and more filled with fun near hostilic yet healthy romantic tension as compared to the show and Shyam's charachter will not be a villian. Basically my vision is to retain all the essential canon events from the show and adding more compelling and favourable twists & turns to the story. Sort of like a remake but make it way less toxic, way more wholesome, way more sexy/romantic, more progressive and a more nuanced charachter growth. Bit of a 2.0 version of the original show, in some ways.

Anyone who hasn't watched the show won't have any problem following the plot/significance of the canon events and will be bound to fall in love with the crazy enemies to lovers chemistry that us fans of the show know and LOVE about Arnav and Khushi's romance. Hope yall have as good a time reading it as I know I will have writing it. Enjoy:)

Genre:

Drama | Romance | Comedy | Wholesome | Family Drama | Friendship | Social Issues

Tropes:

Enemies to lovers | Slow burn | Canon-based | He falls first | Office romance | Forced proximity | Grumpy MMC and sunshine FMC | Meaningful romantic encounters |  Fix-it canon events | Fake Marriage/Marriage of Convenience (TBD)

Trigger Warning: (Light-Medium Level)

Childhood Trauma | Suicide | Depression

The Vibe is:

Immersive | Dramatic | Wholesome | Romantic Tension | Office Drama/Romance

I do not own the charachters Khushi Kumari Gupta, Arnav Singh Raizada or any of the related characters. The Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon series was produced by Gul Khan and is owned by 4 Lions Production. This fanfiction is intended for entertainment only. I am not making any profit from this story.

East Meets West: Bridging Fashion from Burberry to Sabyasachi and Papa Don't Preach by Shubhika

This case about Burberry made me think of Indian fashion and the axis of traditionality/heritage to modernity. It’s fascinating to see how global brands like Burberry parallel or diverge from Indian counterparts like Sabyasachi and Papa Don't Preach by Shubhika, especially in their approach to blending heritage with modern trends.

Burberry's Timeless Elegance Burberry, with its quintessentially British roots, stands as a pillar of luxury and tradition. Famous for its classic trench coats and the iconic check pattern, the brand merges historical elements with modern needs seamlessly. Under leaderships like Angela Ahrendts', Burberry expanded its reach while keeping a tight grip on its classic British heritage, ensuring that each piece tells a story of timeless elegance.

Sabyasachi's Regal Craftsmanship Crossing over to India, Sabyasachi is a brand that echoes similar sentiments but in a decidedly Indian context. Sabyasachi Mukherjee, the founder, emphasizes the grandeur of India’s artisan traditions. His designs are a homage to the past—lush fabrics, intricate embroideries, and vibrant palettes that speak volumes of India’s rich textile legacy. Much like Burberry, Sabyasachi caters to an elite clientele, offering pieces that combine the old-world charm with contemporary silhouettes.

Papa Don't Preach by Shubhika's Bold Modernity On the other end of the spectrum is Papa Don't Preach by Shubhika, a label that challenges traditional norms and embraces a more rebellious, modern aesthetic. Shubhika Sharma’s creations are colorful, edgy, and experimental, incorporating unconventional materials and bold designs that stand out in a crowd. This brand caters to a younger, more daring demographic, looking to make a statement rather than adhere to classic styles.

Comparative Analysis: Tradition and Innovation What’s interesting is how each of these brands, though operating in different cultural and market contexts, manages to find a balance between tradition and innovation. Burberry, maintaining its luxury heritage, adapts to the modern market with digital integration and global expansion strategies. Sabyasachi, while deeply rooted in Indian craftsmanship, continues to evolve, embracing new techniques and styles to keep his designs fresh and relevant.

Papa Don't Preach by Shubhika represents a leap towards modernity, focusing less on tradition and more on creating new trends and expressions in fashion. This brand is much like the new voices in the fashion industry worldwide, which prioritize breaking norms and setting new boundaries.

Conclusion: A Tapestry of Styles The comparison between Burberry, Sabyasachi, and Papa Don't Preach by Shubhika illustrates a global tapestry of styles where every thread counts. Each brand, whether British or Indian, tells a story through its fashion, influenced by its heritage but driven by the modern world's demands. As global consumers become more interconnected, the influence of traditional and modern design elements blends even more, creating exciting, dynamic fashion landscapes for us to explore.

These brands show that whether in the lush countryside of England or the bustling streets of Mumbai, fashion remains a universal language, spoken fluently with both classic and contemporary dialects.

In a different world, distant galaxies, a little girl with diamonds in her eyes, always dreamed of being important and successful, she was a inner artist, she could draw wonderfully and flawlessly, she had great sense of fashion, and she carried a plane crashing beauty, she could light up every room she stepped into, she was the light that could change the world. She dreamed of being a famous artist in France or a successful fashion designer living in Milan… but will her parents let her be something not reliable? No.

Katherine went to a law school, because, who isn’t rich in this field? But she didn’t like it, tired of it she applied for scholarships in fashion colleges all over the world, where she got only 50% grant. She tried the one her parents wanted her to follow, “business administration” she got a scholarship to India, her parents were so proud of her and she couldn’t be happier, until the moment she arrived in India to find out that there was a misunderstanding and she ended up going to a forgotten village in India to pursue hotel management and catering. She was so sad, disappointed and depressed that no one could ever imagine that she was a dreamer, a creative mind and fun, the light inside her was no longer there, she was literally dead inside…

Gold Chain Bracelet

In today's society, a gold chain bracelet is no longer seen as stereotypically feminine. A growing number of males in recent years have been seen wearing chains as fashion accessories. You can't deny the impact that a chain around your neck has on your overall style.

Gold belly chain jewelry have been prized since the Middle Ages when they were given as rewards for service to the royal court. As of now, it reeks of authority and confidence.

A wide selection of chain types can be found in stores today. Rope, Snake, Figaro, and Wheat are some examples. Cuban links, Venetian chains, Mariner chains, Box chains, and Curb chains are just some of the various options.

The impression left by a person dressed in a gold style lasts. As long as you're sporting a fantastic gold chain anywhere on your person, the effect will be fantastic regardless of the style you decide for.

Much like clothing, chains of any hue are a style statement. They reveal information about the wearer's character traits without drawing attention to themselves. The higher the price tag, the more sophisticated the look and the more elaborate the design.

This is something that only the rich and famous may enjoy. This bodes well for their reputation in the eyes of the public.

The purity of gold in jewelly is measured in karats, and this number fluctuates from piece to piece. Bracelets made in 14-karat or 18-karat gold are the most prevalent, though the exact percentage of gold in each varies by region of origin.

A higher carat rating indicates higher quality and thus a higher price. Because of its increased gold content, 18K gold is typically used for high-end jewelry. Because of this, they are also the most precious and marketable.

Neither variety of gold, however, is prone to wear and tear, so either can be used frequently.

Gold from the Middle East typically ranges in purity from 18K to 24K, and sometimes even to 100% gold. The abundance of 23 and 24-carat gold in Thailand, China, and India is well-known. Intricate patterns are included as well, which is guaranteed to pique consumers' interest.

While there appears to be an infinite variety of gold-plated or merely gold-layered materials, not pure gold, it is crucial to perform some preliminary research before purchasing a gold chain bracelet. It might be difficult to tell the difference between the two, so only purchase from reputable sources. Even though the gold plating makes items look shiny at first glance, they will eventually wear off.

Gold Chains - True Representatives of Gold Jewelry Elegance

Unlike bulky gold necklaces, gold chains are practical enough to be worn every day. This helps explain why these pieces of jewelry are so common. These necklaces are a great way for women to show off their discerning taste. Gold chains are among the most authentic pieces of jewelry, and they come in a virtually infinite range of styles and sizes to suit wearers of all preferences.

You, as the owner of a jewelry store, must be aware that gold-produced chains can be bought in a humongous variety of patterns from various countries. Indian gold chain designs, for instance, are among the best in the world. Online company directories facilitate gaining access to these jewelry offerings. The following advice will assist you in providing your consumers with memorable jewelry shopping experiences.

The Most Well-Liked Patterns

Among the most sought-after styles, curb gold chains are often requested by numerous consumers. Symbolic of today's current trends in gold jewelry, these chains are renowned for their elaborate patterns. From jewelry factories in various parts of the world, you can order these chains in an infinite variety of designs. Gold rope chains, meanwhile, are another common style. There's a reason why women all over the world swoon over these incredible patterns.

Women who are going for a more refined style tend to favor box chains. The ability of these chains to support heavy gold pendants is what makes them so popular. Many ladies enjoy accessorizing their necklaces with dainty pendants; box chains offer fantastic possibilities for this style. Gold herringbone chains are another popular style because of how well they complement a variety of outfits.

These necklaces can be made in a variety of styles. Designs like those featuring intricate snake patterns are particularly captivating. Wheat-patterned and Cuban-inspired designs are two more common patterns for these chains. Include as many styles as you can in your inventory of these chains.

Real, High-Grade Gold

Buyers of gold jewelry who have experience in the market worry about not receiving goods of sufficient quality. This means you need to make sure they have access to high-quality chains. While high-end buyers may not care about the carat value of the chains they purchase, low-income consumers may care greatly. Rose gold, green gold, blue gold, and even black gold chains are all part of a growing fashion trend. You need to know how much gold and how much of what else is used in these chains. Customers may also be curious as to whether the chains were made by applying a thin layer of gold to their exteriors or by combining other substances.

Add men's gold chain styles to your store's selection. More people may visit your shop if you sell chains with gems set into them. Be aware of the most up-to-date market trends and styles. Moreover, research which jewelry producers have a good reputation so you know where to get quality pieces.

Miss Fury - A Tribute to June Tarpé Mills

Since there are so many prompt lists out there each October I like to pick and choose from each sometimes combining prompts from multiple lists/days.

For this years activities I am kicking it off with the @cartoonist.kayfabe prompt for #kayfabetober #goldenage

To represent the Golden Age of comics I am doing a tribute to one of these few female cartoonists of the Golden Age, June Tarpé Mills. While she had created characters such as the Purple Zombie, Daredevil Barry Finn, and Mann of India by far her most famous character was Miss Fury. Miss Fury (originally titled Black Fury) ran as a syndicated newspaper comic strip for April 1941 to December 1951. The strip was full of action, adventure, and romance. The strip would introduce elements of contemporary fashion design to the work as well as more progressive ideas about the roles of wine in society. Particularly, Marla Drake would adopt a young boy being a single unwed mother. A fact that got a few newspapers to drop the trip.

Personally, I love her art work. I first came across it about two years ago and was blown away. Her inclusion of fashion and her rendering of the female form easily puts her in the ranks of the good girl artists of the era. Her inclusion of fashion in her work is also very clear and beautiful.

Learn more about her and her work at https://www.tarpemills.com/

How to Purchase Stunning and Special Jewelry When Traveling

If you enjoy traveling, there's a good possibility that you've acquired a few pieces of jewelry. No matter where you are from, jewelry is used to adorn clothing and convey a unique sense of style. Numerous cultures have a distinctive background with jewelry that has influenced how it is worn. In the past, women often wore jewelry to symbolize their social position, family jewelry, and religious convictions. Even today, people use jewelry as a means of exchange and protection. Every piece of jewelry has a great story to narrate, whether it's an emotional Diamond pendant handed across the generations or a Diamond bracelet to embrace beauty. Let's look at a few places to understand what significance jewelry has played in their history and culture, as well as where you may find the perfect memory of your visit.

Irish cultural jewelry

Jewelry, particularly precious metal jewelry, has a distinctive and significant legacy in Ireland. The talented metalworkers known as the Celts produced exquisite gold and silver jewelry between the years of 2,000 BC and 550 AD. According to historical sources, Celts would only wear jewelry to combat to flaunt their athletic abilities and social position. The significance of ancient Irish jewelry is rich. The Celtic knot is among the popular designs on Irish jewelry. The Celtic knot, which has three interlocking circles, stands for harmony and endless; spiritual life. The sign can be seen on several rings, pendants, and stud earrings today.

The Claddagh ring is an excellent example of classic Celtic jewelry that remains incredibly trendy currently. Two hands are depicted in the shape of a heart. The heart has a crown on top of it. The ring stands for commitment, compassion, and companionship. The Claddagh ring has been linked closely to the fishing community of Claddagh from at least the 1700s, according to historical records. The Claddagh ring is typically given as a present in Irish culture and worn as a promise ring or  Engagement ring.

Recommendation for jewelry shopping in Ireland

Today, posh traditional retailers and tourist attractions alike in Ireland carry Celtic jewelry. Our suggestion is to go along The Wild Atlantic Way, a 2,500-kilometer trail that winds along Ireland's breathtaking coastline. There are charming seaside communities with little shops and markets selling Celtic jewelry made by local craftspeople.

Indian cultural jewelry

India has a more than 5,000-year heritage with jewels. Due to the Hindu belief that gold purifies everything it contacts, India is the birthplace of numerous elaborate pieces made with a lot of gold and beautiful gemstones. Indian yellow gold has a reputation for being of the finest quality and weight.

Jewelry serves as a symbol of social prestige and financial safety in Indian cultural identity. Indian jewelry primarily comes into three different categories: temple, wedding, and religious.

During her marriage day, an Indian bride wears jewelry with special significance. From ankle bracelets to her maang tikka, which is worn on the forehead, wedding jewelry is dressed from head to toe. Bangles are important in bridal fashion.

Gold bangles are used by both men and women to reflect a loving and successful marriage. Indian brides also wear engagement rings made of diamonds or gemstones, with the color of the diamond signifying the bride's caste according to Indian tradition.

Recommendation on purchasing jewelry in India

India is a treat for the eyes when it comes to clothing and jewelry, with a wide variety of vibrant hues. The nicest thing about Jaipur, often known as "The Pink City," is that it's a terrific spot to buy priceless diamonds. Visit the Gem Palace, where jewelry has been created and sold for royal and famous people for 160 years.

Kenyan cultural jewelry

Families and culture are highly valued in Kenyan jewelry, and single jewelry expresses the wearer's traditional identities. Beads are a fundamental part of several cultures on the African continent, but they are particularly linked to the Maasai, Samburu, Turkana, and Rendille communities of Kenya.

These communities typically use bone, glass, horn, seeds, seashells, or rocks as beads in their elaborate designs. Depending on what they mean, the beads' color, shape, and size change. Red beads represent strength and stand for harmony and togetherness to the Maasai people. White beads stand for cow's milk, a cornerstone of Maasai culture and a sign of nutrition. Blue beads stand in for the sky, which provides rain to feed the cow. Kenyan jewelry also has Green, black, orange, and yellow beads. These represent different things to different tribes, but when the colors are combined, they convey a message of care and gratitude for family.

Recommendation on purchasing jewelry in Kenya

Authentic beaded Massai jewelry can be found in the open-air Massai markets, a well-known selection of fine African handmade items. Although these shops can be seen all across Kenya, they usually migrate to Nairobi on various days of the week.

Embrace other cultures with magnificently distinctive jewelry.

Buying jewelry when traveling is a way to bring thoughts of memorable experiences you had. Your trip will be rich if you invest the effort to research the traditions and background of your jewelry. The beautiful items you come across on your tour will undoubtedly make for interesting discussion pieces. What could be more enjoyable than continually remembering your journeys?
