Designer Schulen Fernandes for Wendell Rodricks showcased a stunning Zentangle Collection at the recently held Lotus Makeup India Fashion Week in Delhi

Designer and Padma Shri Wendell Rodricks and his label’s creative head Schulen Fernandes, on invitation by the Fashion Design Council of India (FDCI), presented their Zentangle collection alongside three other stellar Indian designers Anamika Khanna, Manish Arora and Rajesh Pratap Singh as part of the Lotus Makeup India Fashion Week’s (LMIFW) grand finalé in Delhi.

Schulen Fernandes for Wendell Rodricks took from the label’s archives and put the Zentangle Collection in a future realm with its stark modernity, tribal history and dramatic look. Zentangle is an elegant metaphor and model for inspiring a deliberate artistry in life. The art form uses simple lines and curved spaces in a deliberate unplanned manner so that it can be viewed from any side. This is the reason many tribal art forms unconsciously adopt a Zentangle approach. The collection is thus also inspired by tribal body painting and is a tribute to the first ever collection that Wendell Rodricks presented in his career. Using a minimalist resort palette of white, silver, sand and azure blue as well as fabrics like cotton, lycra, linen and georgette, the styles featured silhouettes that were large and voluminous with a cinched or exposed slim waist. Zentangle art, crochet, silver woven lines and shimmer accents appear in the collection. The accessories are all tribal inspired and deliberately elaborate in style using flowers, lace, wire, beads, bamboo, metal and feathers.
