Ace designer duo David Abraham & Rakesh Thakore's show was all about Khadi beautifully infused with glamour and bright hues at the 28th edition of the Amazon India Fashion Week (AIFW) Spring-Summer 2017 on Thursday.

The duo showcased over 35 ensembles at the ongoing five-day fashion gala.
Talking about the collection Abraham said: "It was our way of giving a tribute to Khadi. It is our way of saying let’s look at khadi in a different way. Let’s make it glamorous and fun. So we did a lot of metallic and logos in Hindi. It was like a fun collection."
The collection ranged from gold laminated khadi blouse and sari, kurta, joggers, palazzo pants, pavadai skirts, dresses, salwar pants and jackets. The colour palette made a transition from metallic colours like gold, to black, copper and coffee.
