A recent fashion design graduate from Manipal Academy of Higher Education, Kavyalakshmi Suresh is a fashion creative hailing from Tamil Nadu, India. For her graduation collection, She seeks inspiration from the interiors of the Esterhazy Palace located at Fertőd, Hungary, built by Prince Nikolaus Esterházy.
A fine example of rococo-style palaces, The Eszterháza (as it is more popularly called) is one of the many palaces with the namesake, Esterhazy and is not to be confused with the Schloss Esterhazy in Austria, belonging to the same Hungarian noble family, Esterhazy.
One of the most noticeable features of the palace interiors is the exquisite ornamental Rococo style consisting of soft pastel colors, scrolling curves, gilding, sculpted molding, twisting vines, and illusionist ceiling paintings which were designed to give the impression that those entering the room were looking up at the sky, where cherubs and other figures were gazing down at them.
In Kavyalakshmi’s own words, she was inspired by these very elegant and very whimsical elements of the Palace in designing and setting the mood for her collection, which consists of Pastel and blush tones, exquisite embroidery, Hand-painted golden vines, draped silhouettes and fabric manipulation.
Featuring delicate angelic gowns intended as Bridesmaids gowns, the collection features flowy and flared silhouettes, pleating and gathering, in fabrics such as pearl-embellished net, silk-cotton, and georgette.
Another striking point of the collection are the necklines. Consisting of asymmetric necklines with one-shoulder pleats, the classic sweet-heart and one-shoulder necklines, the collection exudes fairy-tale like-charm and elegance while also capturing elements of Rococo such as asymmetry, and the illusion of motion and drama.
Incorporating hand-painted golden vines reminiscent of the gilded rococo-esque vines decorating the palace, other surface ornamentation techniques in the form of Ribbon embroidery and delicately embroidered flowers and leaves also adorn the garments, incorporating classic stitches such as French-knots, fishbone, stem and chain stitches.
Entirely researched, conceptualized, stitched, hand-embroidered and hand-painted by the designer, the pain-staking effort is clearly reflected in the exquisite yet minimalistic garments.
Seeming simple without being boring, the collection exudes the right amount of whimsical ball-room drama, the cuts, flowy nets and drapes being testimony of this, wonderfully executed by the designer.
Asked about her future goals, Kavyalakshmi opens up about looking for the right job suited to her sense of aesthetics and design. Deeply interested in making and creating, She is also a co-owner and maker of a handcrafted accessories, decor and clothing online store, ‘Anerin’.
