alpona designs

This collection is the result of my imagination of 'The Eden garden' with majestic flowers and exotic birds. The concept is translated through hand-painting which then is digitalized with beautiful earthy tones like shades of ebony, moss green, midnight blue, along with a touch of red, white and antique accents. Going by the inspiration, fabrics like silk Dupion , Cotton-silk and cotton are used. Techniques used in surface ornamentation include hand embroidery with materials like sequins, beads, threads, wool etc. The silhouettes are interesting with a balance of both tiered and structured look .
