Maheswari Print Modal Silk / Semi Georgette / Semi Satin Cotton  

INDIGO BLUE | GOLD | LIGHT BLUE 

The inspiration for this costume was first sparked when listening to Poet Subramania Bharathi's poem describing the rain. The expressive verses of the poem illustrate nature’s effects responding to the rain, literally bringing the visualisation of the sonic diagrams. This idea was lent in the design incorporating the Maheswari block prints of drops characterise Raindrops, and the vertical Zic Zac lines symbolise the rainfall. The layers of the Anargali in Dark blue and light blue eco the vibrant movements that were choreographed bring out the loudness of Nature’s sounds described in the poetry and dance choreography.
