About this product

Product Information

In India today, a new generation of designers, wearers and craftspeople are re-energising the sari, translating its heritage for a diverse, contemporary world. Visionary designers across the nation's burgeoning cities are playing with drapes, experimental techniques and inventive materials. This transformation is empowering women and people of non-conforming identities who are re-writing the language of everyday fashion, wearing the sari in novel ways that unravel conventional forms of expression. This book, published in tandem with The Offbeat Sari exhibition, brings together essays and interviews with designers who are working at the forefront of Indian fashion - from couturiers like Sabyasachi Mukherjee and Amit Aggarwal, to craft pioneers like Abraham & Thakore. Placing the sari's leading creators in dialogue with writers, experts and advocates, this book reflects on how creative ingenuity is expanding the possibilities of contemporary dress across India, revealing some of the radically offbeat ways in which the sari has become a site for renewed innovation over the past decade.

Surprises abound... including a sari and baton belonging to feminist Gulabi Gang leader Sampat Pal and saris worn by a skateboarder, a mountain climber, and more., Seeing the sari reclaimed to represent where India is going, as opposed to where it has been, is a powerful moment., A garment once considered by young people to be traditional and uncomfortable has in recent years evolved into a modern expression of identity and resistance. The exhibition explores how designers and craftspeople are reshaping the ways in which the sari is understood, designed, made and worn in India today.
