Designer Rupam Grewal showcases Jaamawar Minx’s ‘Festive Collections’ ‘Mulberry Tales' and 'Star Dust'
The exquisite collections were adorned by Aakanksha Sareen, a well known
Punjabi film actress and who has featured as the female lead in several Punjabi
songs with famous singers, the 'Mitti 2' actress will soon be featured in
another Punjabi film 'Gurmukh'.
Rupam, who is mainly known for her intricate bridal ensembles, has experimented
this festive season with more Western-looking collections, but which have that
Indian feel & style, which Rupam has perfected.
Rupam, who is a gifted designer and has worked with various types of embroidery
for over 15 years said, “We have come up with beautiful & ethereal attires
for the upcoming festivals, wedding events like mehndi, reception etc. For
'Karwa Chauth' we have some unique lighter dresses with different styles and
modern cuts. The USP of the Mulberry tales collection certainly is the use of
the world’s finest Real Silk (Mulberry) in the creations which have been given
a finish with imported laces.”
Rupam also shared some fashion do's and don'ts for married women who will be
observing the Karwa Chauth fast.
She added, "Red is not compulsory to wear during Karwa Chauth, one should
focus on going in for vibrant colours, some happy & beautiful yellows, pinks,
oranges, greens are also good choices. The dress should not weigh the lady down
and also needs to come into reuse after Karwa Chauth. We have some nice options
for Karwa dressing in the latest collections."
Meanwhile, informing about her collection ‘Star Dust’ she said, “In a creation
Tulle fabric has been used with delicate lacework at the neck, which is
highlighted with thread and hand-cut sequins, hand embroidery and has a sheer
back. It can be paired with a straight JM Salwar in real Mulberry silk crepe
with cutwork and has a tulle dupatta with lace and badla jaal work.”
In the 'Mulberry Tales' a dress made with lace fabric has a kurta
showcasing cut-dana, glass-tube and lacework hand embroidery which makes it
more elegant in style. It is paired with a Banarsi neemzari gharara that has
lace edging and has a beautiful tulle dupatta that consists of real freshwater
pearls, Swaroski, glass-tube and hand-cut sequins embroidery.
Another dress in the 'Mulberry Collection' - is a shirt in a crepe fabric
with thread, dabka, gotta and tube work and hand embroidery. It is paired with
flared pants and has a contrast colour tulle dupatta. There is a sharara also
in this style.
The dress genres in both collections include stylish dresses like gowns,
enticing tops, straight pants, shirts with collars - but not the typical
kameez, embroidered cutwork salwars and straight salwars too.
Rupam has taken special care to create beautiful silk masks of vibrant colours
as this new fashion accessory gains popularity amid the pandemic. Summed up
Rupam, "We have fashionable silk masks to match outfits. Reliable studies
have shown that silk is a material which does counter virus infection by not
allowing the pathogens to stick onto the fabric."
