Fantasy called India
4 Nov 2012 4:03 AM IST
To celebrate their 25th anniversary year, Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla have come out with India Fantastique, published by Thames & Hudson, in two volumes - Fashion [Volume I] and Interiors [Volume II].
Known both for their fashion creations for men and women and for interior design, their reputation extends far beyond India: many international celebrities wear Jani-Khosla creations, among them Dames Judi Dench and Maggie Smith, Sophie Marceau and Sarah Brown.
The first volume of India Fantastique displays dozens of the duo’s impossibly elegant designs created over the past 25 years, including close-ups of exquisitely crafted details. The second volume focuses on their extensive work in interior design. Their hallmark maximalism runs riot in privately commissioned interiors, which incorporate art, artifacts, antiques and vintage textiles. An exhibition of the designers’ work was held at Sotheby’s London in September to coincide with the launch of India Fantastique.
