The Diwali Edit

This year we bring to you The Diwali Edit.

Diwali has always been Mani’s favourite Indian holiday to celebrate. She grew up watching the sky shine bright and light up fireworks with her family in India. That’s when Mani’s obsession with fireworks started. The entire family would get together and celebrate following a grand feast.

However when Mani and her family moved to Canada, Diwali had changed, there was no longer the extravagant celebrations Mani grew up watching. Mani always wanted to do a Diwali themed party where she’d get dressed up in a lengha and take pretty pictures with divas / candles. This year, Mani made this happen and organised a Diwali shoot.

Mani’s vision behind the shoot was it to be extravagant, opulent and eclectic. Mani wanted to elevate the concept of Diwali by using Chandeliers and candles along with eclectic rugs and a beautiful Indian fresco back drop. The inspiration behind the shoot was Sanjay Leela Bhansali film backdrops. Mani worked with some amazing vendors making this dream shoot and vision come alive.

Anil from Soiree Events, helped accessorize the set with even more elaborate chandeliers, and 100 + candles. Designer Dance Floors printed the beautiful back drop that Mani had found. The same rugs from the Engagement / Tulum Shoot to add to eclectic vibe. Paras from Paras Events provided his beautiful furniture for the models to take “maharani-esque” photos on.

For the actual looks, Mani wanted to stay true to the MKJ brand and do more mix and match looks with current and new collections, to show how versatile the pieces can be.


The Diya Sari

This dreamy look will have you feeling like a real life goddess. This lightweight chiffon sari is decorated with whimsical ruffle detailing along the hem and 'pala'. With the multiple styling options, this sari is many outfits in one.

The Emerald City Set

The Emerald City Set is a true GEM! This boyfriend tank top and gathered wrap skirt ensemble is covered with beautiful reflective mirror detailing. This set amplifies the effortless, boho silhouette with its tiered, loose fitting top and thin shoulder straps. Circle mirrors border the hem of each tier, adding a playful shimmer to the look. The skirt is a tiered, gathered skirt with a wrapped snap closure.  A thin border made up of tiny, gold glass beads lines the waist seam and wrap opening to complete this piece.

 

The Atlantis Dress

The Atlantis Dress is every bride's dream. This structured, yet soft look will have you feeling like you're ready for the red carpet! The silhouette features a high boat-neckline, long sleeves, and a double slit skirt base. This dress also includes a plunging back with corseted ribboning and a centre back invisible zipper along the waist of the skirt.
