Guldastah Collection

A name known for his artful splendour, Rohit Bal has redefined Indian couture with a very refreshing take ever since the inception of his eponymous label. Borrowing notes from global style mannerisms and infusing them with our culture-honed art and craft, the couturier has mastered the classic-meets-contemporary dictum. Regal in his approach, his designs are lush with exquisite art. Ostentatious embellishments on subdued tones or deep-hued pieces in intriguing textures, the finery of a signature Rohit Bal couture piece is second to none. His visionary designs are a reflection of the enigmatic person that he is. While the wedding scene is abuzz with traditional silhouettes, he takes a notable detour with his luxe and creative ideologies offering a repertoire that celebrates ethnicity while resonating with urban tastes and distinctive preferences.

While wedding venues move to fascinating destinations overseas, the feel of exotism in the wardrobe is a must. Extravagant settings demand exquisiteness in the sense of styling too. And catering to that need of the golden hour, Rohit Bal imbibes a perfectly balanced traditional and modern approach in his distinct trove of wedding wear. His wedding wear is coveted by the crème de la crème of the country. Ranveer Singh and his family defined their regal splendour for the wedding reception in signature couture pieces from the Rohit Bal collection. Bold and experimental, the designer makes femininity the power element of his creations. Every element- a unique inspiration, every cut- a stroke of art, the glorious volume of every creation in the Rohit Bal collection is made for a dramatic entry.

Art & versatility is the core focus of his contemporary wedding wearables. Placing supersized flowers on bewitching dark hues, he turns dreamy visuals into reality. His wedding couture defines a new take on bridal fashion every season. A new-age bride can channel her own modern individuality with a definitive flair, making a lasting impression of her big day. His artful affinity with botanical patterns is formulated in a bold tone in his collections. Whether you’re a bride-to-be or a fashion-forward wedding attendee, your wedding wardrobe isn’t complete without the dose of art illustrated in Rohit Bal lehengas, ruffle sarees, anarkalis and their indo-western hybrids.
