At the ongoing Fashion Week, designer duo Shivan and Narresh presented their Resort 12-13 line titled ‘Equus’. And like the name suggests, the theme was continually referenced. Braided detail referencing a horse’s mane, a geometric zebra print providing respite to a monochromatic look, colors mimicking the mammals’ skin sheen and tassels like those used on Royal horses all were there.
Shivan and Narresh have made a name for themselves in the Resort-wear world and understandably so. The lines are clean and the silhouettes, non-fussy. And while they continue to stick to color-blocking and a geometric sense of aesthetic, it doesn’t really feel tired or old. Loved the sari and the charcoal-grey dress. The absolute favorite though was the chartreuse and black dress (third row, extreme right) which we are bound to see off-the-runway, and soon.
