Growing up in a sleepy village 53 miles off Kanpur Malhousie, Rahul Mishra spent his childhood with his grandparents. He grew up listening to stories. Stories of all kinds, religious, historical, moral and about balance and humanity.

Franzel Amsterdam is an experimental street wear label based in Amsterdam
, as you would
guess from their name and don’t be fooled by the experimental definition. Eric Franzel is the designer and the AW15 collection is a reconstruction, reconfiguration, re-worked or repurpose of other garments into something new. You would notice I did not use recycle as one of the verbs to describe this collection, because this goes beyond that.
Eric has totally evolved beyond the experimental stage and has shown us that you can create fashion from any garment.
The collection is an assortment of fabrics from tents, carpets, kakis, curtains and other garments used to create something unique in the street wear look.
You can find out more about the designer at www.FRANZELAMSTERDAM.COM

‘Play Design’ elaborates on question such as Self-actualisation and self- restraint which can be both Subtle and Bold when expressed. the collection hopes to incorporate the different aspects of design reflecting the many choices women face nowadays.
The main fabrics used for this collection were Cashmere and Leather. The color palette for this collection was a mixture of Cherry Red and Peacock Blue.
