Rahul is the first Indian designer to showcase at the Paris Haute Couture Week and champions slow fashion as a tool to empower the indigeneous craft communities of India.
The hand-embroidered 'Fleur' A-line dress is intended to be as much art as it is fashion — the dress articulates the rigid geometry of architecture in glimmering sequins and soft tulle. Organic vegetation in monochrome is embroidered with contemporised techniques that look at the craft of hand embroidery from the perspective of today.
