MANISH ARORA
fall/winter 2006/7

The most important things in life
can be experienced in yourself.

The London based designer Manish Arora created a collection influenced by the different cultures he is living in. The catwalk presentation is inspired by the romantic figure Red Riding Hood and the Sadhus meditating, a practice which leads through ascetic life in nature to liberation and god. On luxurious fabrics like cashmere, jacquard, silks and silk velvets he places the symbols of his beloved homeland. On the empire-line dress the swan is more than decoration: it represents the Hindu god Brahma and his wife Sarasvati, the goddess of art and science. She is often accompanied by a peacock. next>>>
