Ritesh Aniket Rishav Studio presented a fashion show at Hotel Diggi Palace in Jaipur to promote traditional handloom textiles.

The Kolkata-based traditional wear brand showcased its Sheesh Mahal collection, which is inspired by the Sheesh Mahal palace and makes visual references to its floral bouquets, murals, Arabesque and Mughal pattern work, and mirror work. Themes were taken directly from murals and used to embellish garments and architectural motifs also featured.

Traditional wear reigned on the runway, while zari and natural yarns were used to promote both sustainability and the area’s traditional heritage. The event was organised by Golden Thredz and handbags were provided for the show by Feza Bags.

The show featured Deepshikha Deshmukh as its showstopper. Deshmukh runs Love Organically India and supports the promotion of indigenous handlooms and textiles.

Rar Studio was launched by Ritesh Rajpoot, Aniket Sinha, and Rishav Sinha. The brand retails from a number of multi-brand boutiques including Ogaan, Studio Rudraksh, and Anantam.
