Banka silk associated with celebrity Designer Poonam Dubey to showcase “Loom to Wardrobe” at India Runway Week

Banka Silk, an organization working for the upliftment of weavers of Banka associated with celebrated designer Poonam Dubey to showcase an inspired Mughal monuments embellishment ​collection of fabrics called \'Loom to Wardrobe\' at India Runway week. This collection ​is​ truly​special as Poonam Dubey has created ethereal pieces from the Indian textiles. ​
​​
The collection in Tussar silk was inspired by the people who migrate to bigger cities in search of a better life but do not forget their roots and still want to be recognized from their village or town. Taking a cue from this feeling, Poonam created 10 styles in natural earthy colors like beige, white, grey and slightly moving towards hues like blue and magenta that truly exhibit the beauty and rustiness of the villages. Banka Silk?s show is a powerful story of a progressive and new age fashion. The highlight of the show was the treatment of handmade Mughal monuments embellishment on their creations with the use of block prints, hand painting, surface ornamentation and ornate textures on Tussa​r silk and linen and using weaving and traditional hand processes to achieve radical shapes.

​​In the words of Udyan Singh, Founder -​Banka Silk, ?This season, we turn the spotlight on the biggest global fashion trends and are showcasing them on the Indian ramp. Wearable tech trends will surely bring about multi-fold changes in the industry and will give Indian designers a new perspective on the already existing wave.

​According to Poonam Dubey, Designer said, ?Indian weaving industry has the world?s largest number of handloom weavers and an extremely rich heritage of handloom products. Despite such obvious and impressive strengths, India has not been able to ensure sustainable and satisfactory livelihoods for handloom weavers. The reality today is that majority of handloom weavers are living in poverty and are leaving the occupations.They need a helping hand to meet their needs.Udyan Singh joined the cause with the concept of Banka Silk and helped weavers to meet their livelihood by providing them with adequate training to meet the needs of dynamic world.Being from the same native place we share same interest of helping and uplifting the weavers effort?
