Shabd Alexander for colour.





Designer Shabd Alexander comes to mind when I think of colour. For years before discovering this designer I thought of tie-dye as crafty and fun but not exactly wearable. After seeing Alexander's work however, I was impressed. The tie-dye I once thought of as tacky was now chic. Shabd Alexander experiments with delicate fabrics and interesting colours as she creates a variety of garments and accessories. I would say that the unexpected colour combinations stand out the most in each garment. They just work so well together although they aren't the most conventional or "safe" colours. Alexander's garments are sure to be statement pieces in any one's wardrobe. I, myself, have the backpack in the above photo on the left from her collaboration with BAGGU bags. BAGGU also heavily utilises colours and patterns in their bags so the perfectness in the collaboration was unmistakable.
