Kinfolk is a collection about contradiction, nature against culture, spontaneity against routine, heart against mind, and the refusal to choose between them. Lehengas and ghararas in cassata prints sit beside draped dresses that hold classic and contemporary at once, rendered on linen satin, jacquard velvet and printed tulle for a watercolour softness. Colour runs from parakeet green to zesty tangerine, pastel pink to saturated neon. Aisha Rao's signature appliqué appears here in a blotched technique, and the collection extends past clothing into embroidered minaudières, potli bags, totes and a jutti-loafer hybrid. Made for everyone in the family, handcrafted to order.
