"The ensemble is a one-of-a-kind couture masterpiece that reimagines a classic Angrakha as a unique silhouette that complements Tabu’s sculpted shoulders and tall frame. It features the revival of Abu Sandeep’s ‘Crushed Silk’ collection, which was originally created by serendipity. Made with pure Khadi silk, it has a crushed texture so hypnotic that it flows like an endless sea of maximal fabulosity. The texture is created by a secret signature technique discovered thirty-eight years ago. The garment has been hand-tailored with over fifty metres of silk that finds elegant expression in a mix of Indian heritage and Western style," the designers explained.
