HOW TO STYLE A TABARD

With the onset of summer, it’s finally time to give the monotonous black and white winter wardrobe a bright and cheery makeover. This season allows ample opportunity to play around with colours, prints, patterns, cuts and lengths. Right now, your summer collection should consist of soft and pastel hues, and breathable, natural fabrics like cotton and malkha. The most exciting wardrobe game however, allows one to play with summer silhouettes.

Creating silhouettes using a mix-match of fabrics, textures and fittings not only paves way for a diverse new trend but also makes for an unconventional way to adjust clothes to your comfort and style. Layering is a good example here—if used wisely, the art of layering can coat chic with a layer of sophisticated; bold with modest; dated with fresh & trendy. 

To layer and experiment with silhouettes, you will need the right apparels in your wardrobe. Here is where the tabard flows in—a vibrant style by one of the top fashion designers in India, Anita Dongre. Fluid and easy-breezy, the tabard borrows from a short coat that was extremely prevalent in Europe during the middle ages. Dongre spun this garment with a chic twist—the modern day tabard is a floor-length tunic with high slits on both sides and is quite versatile; you can wear it to work, for a brunch or even a wedding. Here’s a cheat sheet on how you can own the tabard trend this season:

The Brunch Look

An easy brunch with the girlfriends or a fun work event—you must have your fashion A-game in place! Pick a light-hued tabard for this, in soft, flowy fabrics like cotton/organza/silk and pair it up with ankle-length parallel pants in hues like off white/pastel pink/powder blue. Add chunky statement earrings if dressing for a night event; elegant trinkets for a day occasion. You can pair the look with block heels or platforms and a shoulder bag to match!

The Day Wedding Look

Weddings can be tricky, often because you have to curate different ensembles for the day events. Silhouette play does wonders in such situations; you can use the same apparels and layer them differently to achieve vividly unique results each time.

For a day wedding or pre-wedding rituals like haldi ceremony, pick out a simple tissue tabard in pastels/off white/light gold. You can pick one with subtle embroidery too! Overlap with a floor length or ankle length jacket—something that complements the tone of your tabard—maybe mint/sage/cream. Add some glam to your ensemble; pair with bottoms that have gota patti work or an indie print on them. With a pop of colour on the lips, keep the rest of your face natural (maybe just a hint of gold base illuminator). You can wear a set of rings or layered neckpieces for that dreamy, eclectic finesse.

The Night Wedding Look

However, when putting together an ensemble for a big fat Indian wedding under the starry skies, one should slightly modify their approach and go for colours that create a contrast when photographed in artificial lighting. Opt for more shimmer in this case; maybe a sandy-gold jacket in organza with sequins over your tabard in light gold. Go all monochrome with a floor-length, malkha skirt adorned with a medley of gold zardosi threadwork. Make sure to balance the attire with light make-up in natural tones of brown. To create a showstopper look, add a sheer net dupatta and a pair of sequined mojris.

Extremely versatile in nature, the tabard can be styled in a plethora of ways to give any attire a cutting edge look. It is also a unique and stylish new way to make a break through appearance at any type of event, be it a formal wedding or a casual, evening cocktail party. The tabard thus needs to take center stage of your bridal wear collection. Dress it up or down as per the occasion and you are all game to make heads turn.

A Different Weave

Handloom creations by Madhu Jain

EVEN AS the bi-annual fashion carnival, the Amazon India Fashion Week (AIFW) unfurled its Autumn-Winter 2017 edition in Delhi on Wednesday, there was a subtle shift in the general mood of proceedings on Day One. The seriousness in the air could have been attributed to the cause at hand — handlooms — which have become a focal point of the season. The Fashion Design Council of India (FDCI), which has hosted shows supporting Varanasi brocade and homegrown khadi in the past, is for the first time endorsing the cause of the handloom industry in such a big fashion. And with the Union Textiles Minister Smriti Irani in attendance at the opening show, Sunil Sethi, President, FDCI, was a happy man. “The FDCI had always taken handlooms very seriously but this is the first time we have projected them this way. This has a lot to do with the support from the Ministry of Textiles, Development Commissioner (Handlooms). It’s a synergy — the design fraternity is taking handlooms seriously, and so is the government,” he said.

The tone for the day was set by a panel discussion with the likes of designers Gaurav Gupta, Sanjay Garg, Anita Lal from Good Earth, Sally Holkar from The Handloom School and Uzramma from Malkha India where Garg made a plea for wages of weavers and also durability of the fabric. “In the prevalent times of climate change, we should embrace handlooms. Given their non-existent carbon footprint, they are a green industry,” said Uzramma. Here are the highlights from the ramp on the opening day:

Silken Smooth

With the Jharcraft show, Jharkhand’s rich weaving and textile culture was brought to the fore. Designers Rina Dhaka, Shaina NC, Dabiri and Shruti Sancheti showcased their designs, made in collaboration with weavers and artisans from the state. The silk-rich state, with its offerings of muga, mulberry and eri silks, proved to be a treasure trove for designers. As Rina Dhaka said, “I have worked with silk, which has been treated to look like organic cotton. The embroidery and the tassels are all special motifs used and worn by the Chhau dancers.” While Sancheti took the minerals and deep forest reserves of the state and created looks in bold metallic colours of rust, black, deep purple and mahogany, Dabiri used a lot of mirror-work and silver gota-patti on mulberry silk fabric, while Shaina NC showcased her silk sari collection with a unique double sari drape.

Flourishing Legacy

Ikat specialist Madhu Jain celebrated the completion of 30 years in the industry with a show highlighting “a dying art” — the double ikat weave. There was also liberal use of golden gota-patti, which added a certain glamour to the collection of dominant black, yellow, red and beige. Many of her family members walked the ramp for her, making this collection deeply personal for Jain. Mumbai designer Krishna Mehta, on the other hand, used Maheshwari fabric along with other silks like Pochampally to create a very young and spunky collection called “Parted Lips”. “I have contrasted the designs too — with pleats and layers and used metallic embellishments to add drama to the outfit. Handloom doesn’t mean boring,” added Mehta.

Handy Work

If you thought handlooms were only meant to make a statement or for standing out at an “arty” do, think twice. Designer duo Abraham & Thakore featured formal work wear made with natural organic fibres. “We have used cotton and silk blends from all over India and fashioned them into work wear. The fabrics work wonderfully in Indian summer,” said Abraham. The collection featured dresses, trousers, saris and suits for men in blues, reds and monochrome shades of black and white. One also saw a lot of asymmetrical cuts and hemlines.
