Amar by Eka unveils S/S 2025 collection, ‘The Rite of Spring’ at LFW X FDCI
Under their ‘Amer by Eka label, fashion brand Eka unveiled their Spring/Summer 2025 collection, ‘The Rite of Spring,’ at the Lakmé Fashion Week x FDCI 2025. The event is being held from March 26-30, 2025 in Mumbai along with other innovative designs.
The Amer Fort-inspired collection re-imagines architectural elements as craft-focused, ready-to-wear pieces. Showcased at a runway show in Mumbai, the collection translated the fort's botanical and grand heritage into tactile, layered garments, showcasing a palette of blues, whites, greens, and pinks. Influenced by Pina Bausch's, Designer Rina Singh's vision offered a thoughtful fusion of traditional and contemporary styles.
Offering a rhythmic symphony of renewal—where colors, textures, and silhouettes dance together, the collection brings ancient crafts to life with contemporary relevance and sustainable intention, says Designer Rina Singh
Fabrics like light cottons, silks, organzas, and handwoven textiles like cotton-silk, linen, and gauze are a key element of this collection. Its patterns are characterized by bold stripes, checks, and contrasting selvedges while the range transforms hand-drawn floral motifs into detailed block prints, some requiring up to 80 wooden blocks per garment. Embroidery and appliqués symbolize the mirrored collages and ornate borders of Amer Fort’s gateways, adding a subtle sparkle.
The collection serves as a poetic exploration of India’s textile heritage, reinterpreted with a contemporary perspective.
