Indian designer Raghavendra Rathore will showcase his special capsule collection at a three-day pop-up show of Indian menswear at Shop Qatar, a shopping festival in Doha which begins on January 5.

The designer’s eponymous label at the pop-up will feature kurtas, jodhpuri bandhgala jackets, breeches, festive sherwanis, embroidered achkans, and waistcoats, alongside accessories such as custom buttons, cufflinks, pocket squares, and neck scarves.
 
"We're looking forward to showcasing everything classic that the brand has to offer with just the right amount of contemporary and transitional outfits. The clients here have a similar sartorial aesthetic to us Indians when it comes to special occasions and festivals,” said Rathore in a statement.

"The beauty of the bandhgala is that it is a versatile garment with its inherent lineage of Indian heritage. The bandhgala has the ability to fit into any gentleman's wardrobe and what also makes it interesting is that it can be worn differently, in different parts of the world - with breeches, or with denims," Rathore added.
 
The luxury Indian menswear label Raghavendra Rathore currently has seven flagship stores in India. Earlier this year, Italian luxury group Zegna and Reliance Industries’ Reliance Brands picked up a stake in the business to increase the brand’s presence in the country.
