The collection has launched on Drawn’s e-commerce store, the brand announced in a press release on November 3. With a colour palette of greens, blues, neutrals, and pinks, the collection mixes oversized silhouettes with an artistic yet relaxed approach to dressing. 
 
“The 70s fashion was marked by individuality and expression,” Drawn announced in a press release. “Successfully breaking through the norms of conventional fashion, it was high-profile, flamboyant, and inspired by flower power. And Drawn’s new collection, in collaboration with artist Richa Kashelkar, is all about bringing the retro 70s back.”

Notable items in the collection include the retro style 'Passengers of the realm Big Little Dress’ which is loose, features a bold print, and has feminine, frilly details. Made using viscose satin, items in the collection are designed to offer comfortable options from day to evening. 
 
The collection takes paintings by Kashelkar and prints them onto textiles to create a sort of wearable painting. Kashelkar’s blue hued painting ‘Maya/Illusion’ is rendered as an off-the-shoulder dress which exemplifies Drawn’s free-spirited aesthetic.
