Aditi Rao Hydari effortlessly embodies elegance in Raw Mango’s Apsara kurta from the Garland – Festive 2024 collection. Crafted from luxurious silk satin, the kurta features intricate embroidery that reimagines the garlanded statues of the Mauryan empire. Cascading zardozi, naqshi, moti, and metal sequins beautifully envelop the deep V-neck, adding rich texture and dimension. Paired with the Varga pant, also from the Garland collection, the ensemble perfectly blends tradition and modernity, making it an ideal choice for festive celebrations.
The Garland collection celebrates the deep cultural significance of garlands, symbols of blessings, love, and the sacred. Raw Mango reinterprets this powerful symbol through scale and form, drawing inspiration from floral torans, braided malas, and Mauryan sculpture. The collection features vibrant hues—such as gulkand rani, petal pink, mogra white, and raw green mango leaves—accentuated by exquisite embroidery on brocade and contrast color appliqué. These elements highlight both folk traditions and contemporary design.
