Fahion’s new ‘it’ designer- Rahul Mishra

      Fahion’s new ‘it’ designer- Rahul Mishra

       Rahul Mishra, a physics graduate found his calling at the NID in apparel designing and today stands before us as a flawless indian designer!

Born and brought up in Kanpur, Rahul got scholarship in Milan which was the turning point of his life. After that he kept mesmerizing the audience with his highly renowned craftsmanship which became a signature in his garments. The  intricate, hand woven and embroidered work was present in almost all his garments. He creates slow fashion and provides work to the traditional weavers and craftsmen and enlightens up a way to  direct the work of the native Indian highly skilled craftsmen to the world through his clothes.

There is overflowing simplicity in his work. He colour palette mostly consists of pastel and saturated colours and he uses ethereal whites and off whites in his collection.

His latest collection at the amazon fashion week showcased fusion style as his inspiration came from his wife . He described the modern day women who are always multitasking from work to home. This makes them strong keeping their feminity intact.

The tree of life collection used a lot of floral embroidery along with geometric progressive design. Beautiful hand created motifs gave strength and colour to the soft gauzy and sheer garments.

The best part about Rahul mishras collection is that it is  never intimidating, it never uses extravagant embellishments.

He  uses simplicity with deep embroidery.

There was a lot of juxtapositioning and flow to his style.  He plays around with saturated hues and uses dark colours like blacks, purple as well.

His strength as a designer is how he comes up with something new each time,continuing the garment flow and consistency from his previous collections.

He incorporated new shapes and styles to his outfits, new cuts. His reversible collection in 2006 gave the pleasure of two in one outfit and his collection at the amazon week was wonderful in a way that separates in his collection could be used independently.

 He mostly worked on wool and reinvented the thought to use wool  in summer as it also provided a lot of work to the weavers all year round.

Rahul uses a lot of sheer paneling, trench coats, front open zips,capes, simple yet intricate embroidery on chanderi, wool and silk. 

In his latest autumn wonder collection for fall winter 2016,the collection comes out to be very serene and classy.

The peplum tops are beautifully complemented with very saturated colour floral work on it. The saturated geometric progressive deigns on whites and off whites look very warm and ethereal. The costumes are asymmetrical and flowy, a part of his signature look.The sheer paneling was done beautifully on trench coats with minimal floral affair.

There are different varieties of front open styles from slits, to diagonal front cut to slight dhoti work.

The sheer had beautiful parrot embroidery on it.

There is consistency in the colour palette and design and the colour grows warmer and darker .

The above ankle pants with flowy coats and cropped tops was one of my favourite ensembles , quite fashionable!

With every collection Rahul Mishra brings in something new with his skirt lengh variations  or colour combinations and from garment cuts or stylized capes.

But what remains consistent, forever enjoyable and timeless in his collection is the handcrafted work , the gauzy and ethereal garments  and unintimidating and simple yet empowering look, the consistent colour palette with different combination hues every collection and variation in cuts and styles.They are always asymmetrical not proportionate. He always plays around with the fusion and clothes combinations. The churidaars are replaced by sheer lacing palazzos or long front with embroidery patches . He plays with collars and neck lines keeping flow consistent or an easy look to his overall costume. Fabrics high quality and the fabrics are the crux with lustrous energy.

His trench coats, and fusion styles create noise about his clothes. Paneling is always seen in his work whether its garments or sheers.

What makes Rahul Mishra iconic is his ability to produce beautiful craftsmen work on his delicate yet empowering fabrics and bringing them out every season with a different sense of style and inspiration to it.

According to me he should play around a bit more with the shoulders of his garments. Although they are prefect and commendable yet, a little tint of newness and fun and exploration with his shoulder work could probably work .I feel he could avoid the use of certain dominant colours like purple which seems dull and inconsistent.
