Fashion and art have been flirting for hundreds of years – we’ve seen it in haute couture, in experimental runway shows by renowned designers, and in made-to-order pieces for celebrities.

However, in India it has challenged the conventional ideas of dressing up and artists and fashion designers are constantly experimenting with wearable art patterns.
