Taapsee in Gaurang's new Bidri​ Art sari

India, May 29, 2017: When it comes to her personal style, the ever stylish actress Taapsee Pannu says she prefers styles that are “classic and comfortable and trendy.” And it’s this effortless chic look that GAURANG and his weavers have created inspired by ancient art of Bidri that found instant love from her.

From his new bidri inspired collection Taapsee had special admiration for his Benaras saree, inspired by the intricate bidri craft design. It is a beautiful convergence of design, color, texture woven in 6 yards. The Hyderabad based Indian Textile Revivalist Gaurang Says Tapsee sports the Bidri Saree with impeccable grace and élan.  Every collection is a new vision, GAURANG says, my ultimate goal is to “offer women versatility while evoking confidence, comfort and a sense of beauty. She is a perfect example of modernity and style.”

GAURANG’s new collections inspired by Bidri is an array of exquisite sarees, lehengas, ghagras . The designs in bidri include small floral motifs, geometric designs and influence from persian architecture. Taking inspiration from the fine silver filigree inlay from bidar, Gaurang has translated the delicate motifs and artwork of Bidri into the rich benarasi weave using jamdani. These designs have been incorporated in an array of yellow and orange huge border, contrasted with a navy blue body, and a coordinated blouse. ​​

Gaurangs creativity spans the broad spectrum of Indian Cotton, Silks and Khadi Textile design, styling crafted for bridal and special occasion wear for men and women.The designer has showcased his collections at various international fashion weeks like Lavera Eco Fashion Week in Berlin, Lakme Fashion Week and in Dubai.
