New Delhi, Oct 25 (IBNS): Reviving the age old traditional art of hand block printing and different kinds of old embroideries, Kanwarani Jaykirti Singh launched her flagship store in Gurgaon.

Princess Diya Kumari of Jaipur was the guest of honor and inaugurated the store.

On the anvil, her various products combine heritage craft and contemporary settings.

For the last ten years Kanwarani Jaykirti Singh Baria has thoroughly enjoyed challenging herself creatively by designing textiles and clothes ensembles.

The collection at the store is inspired by the craft tradition of her state, especially the hand block printing tradition that Baria is famed for.

 

By making use of this traditional method of printing, Jaykirti Singh is helping resurrect a technique that is no longer used in the same capacity as it once was.

Not just that, different kinds of old embroideries like zardozi, aari taari, pittan, salma sitara, sequins are used creatively in her ensembles.
