Designer Sanjay Garg under his label 'Raw Mango' presented his latest collection titled "Monkey Business" on the second day of the ongoing Lakme Fashion Week Winter/Festive 2016.
Known for using Varanasi silks and chanderi, the designer incorporated Gajji Silk, Mashru, Kadhwa and metallic touches.
"The monkey symbolise survival, adaption and even humans evolve from them so that is the basic theme of my collection," Garg said after the show.
The line had monkey motifs throughout and to keep the theme intact, the show started with the 'madari' rattling his 'dumroo' and with combination of percussions creating a rhythm for the models to walk on.
Garg also gave space to quilting, wool, silk and digital prints.
The label is famous for its sarees, but this time the designer choose to create kurtas, tulip tunics, smocks, cropped tops, pleated dresses, jumpsuits, gowns, off-shoulder gown, maxis and skirts with silver and gold brocade.
However, the traditional India attire was still a part of the range and was displayed with a twist draped like a gown, saree-cum-jacket or saree-cum-blouse combos.
The show presented by Monaco Tourism, also included silhouettes woolen coats and jackets.
