Garg’s latest collection took the designer back to his home state of Rajasthan, the brand announced in a press release. The colourful, rich collection celebrated the region’s textile heritage and folk law and had a thoughtful, measured aesthetic.
 
Moomal featured lehengas, poshaks, cholis, and jackets in hues of magenta, emerald green, royal purple, and gold. Garg used his brand’s newly introduced ‘Bandhej’ techniques to add a contemporary flavour and hair and makeup was styled to add a vintage charm.

“The terrain is different, the sense of dress, its vernacular architecture and crafts,” Garg said about his inspiration for the collection Rajasthan, Lakme Fashion Week shared on Facebook. “All things so abundant that one is never bothered by it, until you leave. I never realised till I left... but these are the things I miss.”
 
The showcase took place on Lakme Fashion Week’s first day, which was dedicated to sustainable fashion -- something Raw Mango is known for. This season marks both the first digital edition of the fashion week, which usually takes place in Mumbai, and also its first ‘season fluid’ edition, a response to the effects of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
