Fashion is always temperamental but style is always personal. Last weekend at Sarwaa, we got a little taste of how fashion meets style through the work of an impeccable jewellry designer named Divya Narasimhan. Her interest and flair for expression through jewellry was nurtured as she gained an education at the National Institute of Fashion Technology (NIFT) in Chennai. She also continues to nurture budding designers as well. Over the years, she has built a brand name of her own called Sayuri. Her collections are most often inspired by the materials she works with, the people that she meets or the places that she goes to. Divya’s keen eye for patterns, texture and colour is most evident in her pieces.
Divya did not stop with just the exhibits this time around. Her expertise was imparted in the form of Sarwaa’s first ever jewellery making workshops. One day, Two Sessions, Beads, Strings, Loops and Wire brought two groups of individuals from different ages and different backgrounds together in a learning environment. Divya’s enthusiasm and passion for her medium of expression was abundant.
