On a rainy day in the late 17th century, an enterprising agent of the British East India Company named Job Charnock sailed along the Hooghly River, a tributary of the Ganges that flows from high in the Himalayas into the Bay of Bengal, and pitched a tent on its swampy banks. The company bought three riverside villages. Soon they would become a port — flowing with opium, muslin and jute — and then, as the capital of British India until 1912, draw conquerors, dreamers and hungry folks from all over the world. Calcutta, India’s first modern city, was born in the late 17th century.Over the years, it acquired many names: City of Palaces, City of Joy, Graveyard of the British Empire. This collection is a tribute to Calcutta, who was once quite a diva. Diamonds & gold adorn our suits reminiscent of the Jazz Clubs & glitzy nights Red & purple flowers which adorn the temple of the dark goddess and a singular fixture of old Calcutta houses -green shutters. All of these come together to bring our first pre-order collection. This collection is racier & edgier than anything we have created before therein it is made to order only. Select your size preference and we will have this delivered to you in 3-4 weeks.
