Devotion Decoded

Devotion x Couture- A Power Collab!!

Forging a phenomenal fusion- Uniting weaves of Madhya Pradesh and Assam, and drapes of Maharashtra

From Rasa to Runway,  we unveil Devotion Decoded at Vintage in Vogue 2025,

where Sacred Stories meet Sartorial Statements,

where Faith intertwines with Fashion, and

where Heritage meets Contemporary Harmony

Devotion isn’t just an emotion, it’s a way of life, an essence that we wear, embrace, and celebrate. This collection proudly endorses our concept- Let’s Make Devotion Fashionable!

Our runway devotional journey began with Rasleela on ramp in 2023, capturing the eternal love of Radha and Krishna, followed by Shiv Tandav on Ramp in 2024, embodying the cosmic dance of Lord Shiva. In 2025, we present Gannu ji and Parvati ji on ramp, a tribute to Lord Ganesha’s wisdom and Goddess Parvati’s grace.

Styled to perfection, the collection showcases the finesse of North-Eastern Assamese Bandhgala jackets and the elegance of regal Chanderi sarees from Madhya Pradesh in Maharashrian dhoti drapes.  Reinterpreted for a bold and modern era, these striking ensembles ignited the runway with their charm and exclusivity . With every weave, pleat, and silhouette, we redefine devotion—turning it into a statement that is fierce, fearless, and fashion-forward. This is where heritage becomes haute couture.

Scroll down and step into a world,

where Faith is worn with Pride,

where Divinity walks the Runway, and

where Tradition isn’t followed—it Leads!!

1. Ivory Grace & Golden Embrace – The Fabric of Faith

Draped in a handwoven Chanderi saree, its pristine white radiating purity and golden borders exuding prosperity, she moves with celestial grace, echoing the elegance of divine motherhood. The regal essence is heightened by a magenta Chanderi dupatta, styled as a temple-inspired headgear. The  high-chroma hue symbolizes power, tradition, and sacred reverence.
