For the collaboration with Obeetee, the designer duo revisited their iconic creations over the years The limited-edition collection is divided in to three themes — Independence, Regimental Regalia and The India-Proud Story. “Our partnership with OBEETEE for the ‘Proud to be Indian’ collection stems from our core philosophy – and that is of encapsulating the vibrancy of vintage India and blending it with the glee and excitement of a modern celebratory India. The inspiration behind these exquisite carpets represents an amalgamation of Indian decadence and modern grandeur. It further highlights the strings of memories it holds, a feeling of nostalgia, pride, and valour; woven through each thread, and woven by the hands of artists,” said the designers about the collaboration.
