For this edition of the Amazon India Couture Week 2015 the designer gives\u00a0Miss Junebug\u00a0an exclusive tour of his fantasy world called \u2018Silt and Cipher\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe forest is a place of magic,\u201d begins the designer adding, \u201cIt\u2019s the natural state of wild land where strange things might occur and strange people might live. The collection \u2018Silt and Cipher\u2019\u00a0gives form and definition to Indian silhouettes &#8211; playing with layering, drama, intricate embroideries and flowing fabrics. There is an abstract process to my collection; it is like having a personal dialogue or showcasing a thin line between fantasy and reality. There are certain magical elements in this collection in a fantasy state. There would be about approximately 40 outfits that will be showcased at the show.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It took Gaurav about two and a half \/ three months to put this collection together. He elaborates further, \u201cWe have used intricate and delicate embroideries and zardozi on a colour palette inspired by the skylight to nightfall colors of the forest. Fabrics used are silk organza, chiffon, georgette, silk crepe, silk dupion, delicate laces and. One will see concept drapings in the ensembles, along with A Line lace jackets, long jackets, peplum tops, trousers, layered skirts, sari lehengas and gowns, flared and pleated skirts, corsets and capes as part of this collection.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>~JB<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_390\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-390\" style=\"width: 750px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a
