Jigar And Nikita’s 11°E Will Bridge Tradition And Global Couture At Lakmē Fashion Week

The collection’s ethos is encoded in its name: 11°E—where ‘E’ represents longitude East, and 11 symbolises intuition and enlightenment. Jigar & Nikita translate these inspirations into vivid silhouettes that fuse history with progress. Think corseted blouses paired with delicate pearl embellishments, ethereal teals and blues for brides, and menswear tailored with sharp precision yet soft movement. Every outfit narrates a dialogue between the regal past and a contemporary global aesthetic.

For brides, 11°E will bring a luminous twist to traditional palettes, blending delicacy with a modern edge. Pearls, soft teals, and flowing silhouettes evoke timeless elegance while remaining fresh and wearable. For grooms, the collection introduces fitted sherwanis, flared pants, and sophisticated tailoring that defy convention. Masculine and expressive, the designs give men a distinct voice in the celebration, bridging heritage and modernity seamlessly.

“Our objective with 11°E was to create a movement, not just a wardrobe. We wanted to showcase the beauty of Eastern craftsmanship to a global audience in a way that feels contemporary yet timeless. It’s for those who dare to stand out and believe fashion can connect cultures,” said Jigar & Nikita.

This vision manifests in every texture, embellishment, and silhouette, reflecting an interconnected world where history informs innovation. Materials, details, and cuts converge to produce garments that honour craftsmanship while embracing forward-thinking design. Each piece speaks to the wearer’s confidence, creativity, and connection to a global fashion dialogue, making tradition feel contemporary and modernity feel personal.
