Trend Setters

The tribal trend has exploded onto the high street this season with inspiration taken from far flung corners of the globe and now ZARA has added a taste of Rajasthan to some key pieces in their spring collection.  

                

Mirror work appears frequently in Rajasthani traditional dress and the region is renowned for some of the most intricate mirror work in the world.  For an authentic look, mix with earthy tones and A LOT of silver jewellery and you will have the perfect festival get up!

Behind the scenes...

If you have seen the preview of our new 'Resort' catalogue, you will know that during our recent supplier visit to India we extended our usual trip to Jaipur and headed South to Goa to photograph our new SS '13 collection.  Putting my new snazzy phone to good use, we documented our time out there with some rather amateur filming and a lot of Instagram love.

India Fashion Week, AW '13

We've seen New York, London, Paris and Milan but now it is India's turn.  Indian Fashion Week or WIFW as it is better known, brought us the usual visual feast of colour and texture as East meets West and the traditional meets forward thinking design.  A fabulous source of inspiration for us here at Andara as we get to work designing next season's product range.
