Are you the bride whose heart skips a beat at the thought
of 40s-inspired frocks, embellished knits, and fun prints?

designers handbag offering: a sequin and crystal embroidered
shoulder bag, featuring fireworks, stars, and blossoms handsewn on silk satin. Everything is very articulate, Jacobs
says of the dense detail. I was taking the ordinary and
making it extraordinary.A little flowery, and a little flashy...
Whats sexier than sparkle on satin for a wedding? Q

the twinkling sparkle of diamonds make for
an alluring play of lights, which explains why
diamonds and pearls have found faithful
bedfellows in each other for centuries of
jewellery design history. Here, they reprise their
roles as lovers on a pair of tasseled drop earrings
from Cartier and Chanels plush bow Ruban
necklace, while Omegas De Ville Ladymatic
watch brings luscious pink hues to the table.
Throw Tiffany & Co.s morganite ring and
Harrry Winstons diamond drop earrings into
the heady mix and youve got yourself jewellery

The
BEAST MODE
Much like Noahs ark, French maison Boucherons bejewelled chest is filled with all
creatures big and small. Renewing and enriching the iconic bestiary that has formed the
core of the heritage jeweller, since 1858, the remodelled collection is a fierce assortment
of wild creatures and dazzling gemstones. A symbolic accumulation of their past glories,
from the signature Serpent Bohme to Hera the peacock, christened after a Greek Goddess,
each piece in the new collection bears the stamp of a rich, jewelled history. Introduced
with new cuts, gemstones, and materials as well as with a contemporary interpretation
of skin and fur, the bestiary is a symbol of exquisite craftsmanship.With over 20 species
including Hans the hedgehog, Cypris the swan, Hopi the hummingbird, and Arctic the
polar bear, each animal embodies itself with the woman wearing the precious gem. n

CHIC UPDATE
Silvia Venturini Fendi talks about creating
84
WHEN IN ROME
Returning to its roots, Fendi
transforms one of Romes
most recognisable structures
on Via Condotti into the
majestic Palazzo Fendi hotel
and maison. A grand vestorey building, the recently
refurbished edice boasts of a
rich aristocratic history, apart
from a colossal Fendi boutique,
a by-invitation only suite, a
seven-room hotel, and
London-based Japanese
restaurant Zuma . Architectural
touches true to the Fendi
aesthetic cater to the whims
of luxury shoppers and the
discerning traveller.
GLITTERATI FAVOURITE
symbol of the maison in all its three versions: Large, regular and mini
Peek-a-boo, she adds.
Artisanal hand-checks, astutely picked materials, uniformity of
workmanship, and a myriad option of sizes and styles makes the bag
a precious keepsake for the discerning brideand nothing like a
bespoke bag to treasure, and one that puts your personality into
perspective. One of the key features of the new batch of bags is the use
of the Intrecciato material, inspired by fur workmanship consisting of
interwoven leather stripes in three colours. Red and milk, shades of grey,
and shades of brown. For young couples in the mood to cement their
love with bags featuring their initials or favourite colours,Pick unique
but timeless designs and materials such as Selleria Cuoio Romano leather
or exotic skins like crocodile, python, and ostrich, or even special
embroideries and precious mink fur for a one-of-a-kind object, suggests
Silvia.After all, a memento of love certainly goes a long way.

THE
SARI
SENTIMENT
Gaurang
past in a metaphorical sense, but its elements will remain popular in the
future as well. As he confronts the experimental streak in modern saris,
Prabodh Jain, owner of Sarangi, asserts, Anything that is a superfluous
addition to the core of the sari is unnecessary and detached from the
intrinsic beauty of the drape. However, he does point out a curious
case of cultural exchange that has informed the native sari over a period
of time. For instance, the paisley pattern was at one point of time,
unknown to the aesthetics of the native kanjeevaram, and definitely not
found in the surrounding temple art. However, references from Banaras,
and particularly the paisley, gained momentum in the kanjeevaram art,
as interactions with artisans and weavers from Banaras as well as
representatives from royal and elite families who would come down
South to commission an order for a kanjeevaram, influenced the native
form. And, the paisley got incorporated into the local canvas. So a classic
also allows for mobility in design and thus gets a new lease of life.Talking
about the kanjeevaram, Jain says, It is both feminine and strong. The
kanjeevaram is definitely not a demure drape, it is in fact, best known
for bold designs. A strong colour contrast is its hallmark.Think an ochre
sari with deep blue border, or an off-white
one with maroon or gold border.The motifs
are also powerful like the rudrakshas, horses,
and elephants, as opposed to gentle creepers.
As a bridal investment, the kanjeevaram,
can also be re-used as an accessory after
the wedding ceremony, with a little use of
your imagination. Founder of the label,
Gaurang, designer Gaurang Shah, says, A
classic sari is a hand-woven masterpiece that
can be handed down to generations and that
strikes a chord with your family history. In a
way, it documents your family history and
Nalli Silks
preserves memories in its contours like no
other.Talking about cross-cultural influences
that enrich the traditional weave, Shah says,We weave traditional paithani
motifs from the 16th century in khadi woven in Andhra Pradesh.Through
this, we achieve a wide variety in the traditional jamdani weave. It strikes
a balance between age-old tradition and contemporary texture. For
Shah, the revivalist, the Tree of Life motif inspires him eternally, even as
he weaves it in khadi, uppada, paithani, kota, banarasi, using the jadani
weaving technique, and works closely with khadi weavers from Andhra
Pradesh. For the bride, he recommends,A jamdani woven sari is a must
for the trousseau. A paithani is perfect for the bride who wants to look
royal, while the khadi jamdani would define a bride who wants to be
subtle and sophisticated. A double ikat patan patola is a riot of colours
and is apt for mehendi!
Commenting upon the idea of the sari as the classic framework or
moodboard for India, Bharat Shah, founder of Ekaya, says, Picture the
traditional art and aesthetics of India, its festivals, and the ceremonies.
You can see the relevance of the sari in the surrounding moodboard.
Also, traditional Indian jewellery is best complemented by the sari.
About the classic sari as the canvas for cross-cultural art, he says,Sample
the banarasi. The base is silk, and upon it, a variety of impressions can
be etchedmotifs from the valley of Kashmir, to French and Italian art
forms, thus establishing its concept as an eclectic canvas. The saris at
Ekaya are handcrafted and their recent PlayClan saris in collaboration
