Anand Kabra
 Anand Kabra’s muse is a free thinker, unconfined to a predictable style statement. A product of a global world, where influences merge and blend.
Like himself, a product of international education and influence imbibed at the London College of Fashion, blending with his core Indian sensibility. The result is the ability to stride the worlds of Indian couture and international style with equal passion. Added to that is a streak of unpredictability reflected in his design aesthete. Whether ‘Hatsuhi:first sun ’, with its coming of age theme interpreted through the rising sun motif; or ‘The Orange Scarf,1927’ – an ode to art deco artist Tamara De Lempicka and the cubist movement; or ‘In Search of Duende’ – a celebration of the free spirit interpreted by the removal of confining conventional dictacts from the crafts of ikat and kalamkari, a strong thematic drives each collection. It could be an emotion, a motif, a story. A single unifying concept cohesively ties each collection. This distinction is the leitmotif of his work.
In ‘Renato’s Malena’, Anand Kabra’s LFW Fall-Winter ’08 collection, he takes on yet another unusual theme. Malena, sensuous and passionate is every man’s fantasy and every woman’s envy. Thirteen year old Renato’s curiosity takes him on a journey well beyond his sexual stirrings, to discover a different Malena, a real Malena. She, like an untamed rose chose to live life her way, on her terms, and chose to survive.
