From Indian and western wear for men, women and kids to jewellery and stunning candles to sweets and gifting options, Temptations has everything that one needs for the forthcoming festival of lights as well as the wedding season.
With a gamut of brands to choose from, guests shopped non-stop. Talking about it Dipti Khaitan, the past president of Inner Wheel of Central Calcutta and advisor of Temptations, said, “It is a one-stop shop for Diwali and the upcoming wedding season. We have stalls of occasion wear for men, women and kids, we have poshak for our Gods and Goddesses, which is very important for the festive season, Diwali home decor, lifestyle products, jewellery, silverware and many more. Our exhibition has trendy and pocket-friendly stuff, which is its usp.”
Here are the highlights of the exhibition that will end today.
(L-R) This midnight blue asymmetrical kurta by Hunar paired with a beautiful white embroidered Nehru jacket for men, has to be at the top of your fashion list this Diwali; This beautiful red handwoven pure linen kurti and dupatta set by Shreemangalam by Anuradha is the perfect attire for your Diwali night. Specialising in ethnic wear, their stall was a treat for festive dressing; Looking for elegant ethnic wear? Rachna and Madhu might be your stop this Diwali. Originally from Mumbai, the designer label specialises in Indian wear and this heavily embroidered suit stood out among the lot.
(L-R) Bansuri’s collection attracted many to the stall. Their poshak or clothes for Gods and Goddesses embellished with American diamond and jewellery for the deities were hard to miss; We spotted this multiple candle holder by Chitra Goenka at the exhibition. A perfect buy for this Diwali, it can also double as a home decor item post the festival.
Diwali without diya is incomplete and Shagun’s embellished and metallic coloured diyas in different shapes attracted shoppers. We loved the ones in the shape of a lotus and an elephant; Bring home this stunning pure silver urli by Zanthe that has the capability to light up any corner. Use it as a decorative item at home or keep it at your puja place.
