TrimmingsAndLace For Chumbak : That World Of Colour

Shot By - Sahil Nanda Photography

For any artist, I believe, eclecticism is a challenging side of the curve to be at. Your art must thrive in its exclusiveness but at the same time must resonate with the ideologies of your audience at large. For any artist to establish this reasoning as his identity is surely a feat. But to diversify and divulge and reinvent and yet remain grounded to the aesthetics is a sign of greatness. For me the husband-wife duo, the curators, the visionaries and the artists at Chumbak fit this definition like no other. Chumbak’s entrepreneurial journey that started five years ago has always been an inspiration to me. Mainly because, it isn’t any rags to riches story that fits the texts of a case study but a narration of how far your dreams and your belief in them can take you. It is a story of what passions are made of and how sometimes it’s all about that one plunge.

The same came this October when Chumbak ventured into the apparel segment with the launch of Collection One. Collection One is your entree into Chumbak’s world of design, colour and print. Not to miss, the quintessential dose of insanity that is associated with Chumbak. So expect a whole new take on space, ocean, Pixel Art and food, all manifested into a fashion line, that has been designed to start conversations that never end and even when they do they end in smiles. 

Unlike most of my posts, I didn’t shoot this look with a prior brief or perspective in mind. My only agenda was to have fun at the shoot and celebrate the genre of outfits that I haven’t really worn before. The designs and prints have an inherent playfulness to them, which automatically gets infused into you. And that is pretty much what happened to me during the shoot. So there were twirls and pouts, jumps and misses, hair flips and virtual kisses, ankle twists and laughs and a leap into this new sea of fashion.

Wishing you all a very beautiful and glorious day of love - February 14th, 2013.

Being a management graduate, my instincts have always drawn me towards two vital principals. 1) Optimal utilization of resources and 2) Identifying and choosing the best alternative. Heavy as it may sound, but I was able to incorporate these guidelines into my fashion sensibilities and hence in my TrimmingsAndLace journey too. If you have been following my blog or been a casual reader you might as well have come across certain outfit pieces labelled as TrimmingsAndLace. They were self-designed pieces and custom tailored to suit my requirements. And ofcourse, an outcome of the above two principals. As time passed I started getting inquiries for these pieces, I started designing custom pieces, styling them for some readers and finally putting them all together into - The TrimmingsAndLace Collection (here). If you have joined me on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram you already know, don't you??

The idea behind the entire collection is not to retail a trend or something which you can't pick from the store of your choice. The ideology simply is that if you like what I wear, you can have it too...which would be exclusive and custom made only for you. Through this endeavour, I am intending to provide you with a no-fuss shopping indulgence and to establish a special connect which I can share with you for the times to come. Following is a little draft on how I am operating.

                                                                           

Recently, I added a few pieces in the collection to celebrate this month of love. And what better day to share an outfit featuring the same than today. The only brief I had in my mind was something yellow, spring yellow, sulfur yellow...anything yellow. I thought of bringing in this cheer and added elements of love, mush and romance with some floral applique work. Though this look of mine is quite understated, (in all honestly, some severe flu action has taken over me and has rendered me immobile to say the least) I can't wait to pair this jacket with summer white maxis, lace dresses and basic denims. Did I tell you I shall accessorize it with an over-dose of sequins or perhaps floral headbands. Too much for one post? Management principal 3) Reader attention is short!
