Sabyasachi Collection

Sabyasachi RTW Spring 2009
Sabyasachi Mukherjee went back to his roots for spring. No, not India — though his collection was flush with such references — but the arts. His mother is a painter and he grew up painting as well.

Mukherjee flaunted his potpourri sensibility by splicing together alluring prints, textures, embroideries and fabrics. He’s quite a colorist as well, pairing, for instance, an amethyst skirt with a saffron and rust blouse. And his whimsical side came through in scallop petal detailing inspired by chicken feathers — cartoon chickens, that is
