Designers Monica and Karishma said they borrowed heavily from various elements of the Dongria tribe for the collection: 'The Dongria Kondh from East-India are known for their cultural heritage and values, which centre on respecting nature...The beliefs, livelihood and culture of the Dongria tribe have always been intricately linked to and inseparable from nature.

They added, 'We've translated these key elements in an artistic fusion of organic summer fabrics, earthy elegance and flowy silhouettes in our Summer/Resort 2018 Collection.'

The collection, the designers said, 'is resplendent with the opulence of contemporary pret couture' but it is executed with 'a more modern, minimalist take'.

 

The collection has an array of summery whites and beiges.
Amoh by Jade said they 'assimilated breathable blends, quilted for maximum softness with exceptional cooling and absorbent properties that help you stay cool yet chic this summer'.
