Chitrangada
(Lakme Fashion Week)
We at Ruceru have always pour emphasis on women empowerment and the sense of unapologetic self. In this collection our theme celebrates the basic joy of having equal right and freedom of expression, unburdened with the innumerable expectations and norms of the society. Lucky to be a brand based in ‘the city of joy’, we have had a nourishing connect with widespread culture. Our collection thus inspired by the legendary Rabindranath Tagore’s timeless Bengali dance drama “Chitrangada”. Inspired by his vision and his sensitivity to portray women as one who personifies love, courage and substance
Rabindranath Tagore envisions “Chitrangada” like any other woman, who would desire to be equal to the man of her choice while retaining her true identity. Chitrangada therefore becomes an example for the woman of substance believing in her independence and freedom of expression. The musical dance drama is a lyrical portrayal of emotions in a woman, her dignity, individuality and worthiness that is as relevant in today’s life as it was decades ago.
The mood, a reflection of the inspiration of “Chitrangada”, portrays femininity with an amalgamation of warrior princess. The tale of Chitrangada, a Manipuri princess, who through her passion for Arjuna, the great warrior from the epic Mahabharata, came to realize that her true power and potential as a woman lay in her duty towards society and righteousness.
The mood accentuates the feel of a strong warrior without making the feel androgynous, instead beautifully cherishing womanhood and the strength along with.
