All of them are embroidered extremely intricately with bunches of flowers, encrusted with crystals and sequins, and enhanced further with giant beads of semi-precious stones. Trousers are the mainstay of the collection, with plenty of options in blouses- cowl necks, asymmetric tanks, shirts, corsets and jackets.

Occasionally fur and feather boa trims also appeared on the necklines, enhancing the glamour.

The Peacock Girl exudes a vintage trait that blends international style and Indian tradition with folk passion infused with magnetism of myriad prints and jacquards -a very 70` s inspired romantic affair.
