Matilda draws its spirit from Roald Dahl’s irrepressible young rebel, a character defined by imagination, fortitude and an instinct to never do anything by halves. The collection unfolds as a fantasia, layering prints, embellishment and delicate florals in a palette that moves from juicy plum and orange to olive and icy blue. Silhouettes become more expansive than ever: more-is-more lehengas reveal intricate appliqué, while signature bustier dresses, East-meets-West pantsuits, pre-draped floral net saris and raw silk bundis paired with straight-fit trousers bring distinct expressions of the house’s craft. Crystal and threadwork burst across the collection, balancing classic structure with fluidity and capturing the ebullience at the heart of Matilda.
