Haldi's Winter Collection

The big fat book in the library still holds a pressed rose from ‘98. Scrapbook ‘07 has old lace from gramma’s ‘86 curtains. And cobbled streets are the go-to spot for vintage velvets and satins in olde worlde shades.

If the above fits you, then the below will thrill you.

Haldi’s Winter Collection is an ode to the Renaissance in soft silks, crinkly crepes, enchanted chiffons and ethereal organza. With classic prints and old rose hues, this collection comes straight out of the past with dresses that kiss the knees and cuts that gently cling to the torso.

Kanick and Roopa of Haldi have been inspired by the 17th and 18th centuries, a period lauded for its rich colours and intricate workmanship. From delicate silver threads lining intricate embroidery to rich ornamentation sprinkled with twinkling sequins, all the dresses in this line spell R-I-C-H. With their creativity, it’s no surprise that Haldi is one of only six all-new Indian design teams invited to participate at Lakme India Fashion Week this year.

Olde is new again.
