EAST MEETS WEST EBBANI as a designer has a carefree and experimental approach towards fashion.Targeting an audience which is fashion forward, young and ready to break boundaries, through the medium of unconventional design.Inclined to focus over a social angle as, culture holds a focal position in the process of design evolution.

COLLECTION: East meets the West: combining the Japanese culture with 60’s space age aesthetic. The collection will showcase an evolution of the Japanese kimono starting from its authentic form further, developing into more contemporary silouettes. A transitional fusion of vintage classic and edgy modernity.The collection in collaboration with Swarosvki showcases a range of head gears inspired by the Japanese warrior caps and the space age helmets. Moreover, the involvement of the Swarosvki crystals adds the 60’s Space age bling and glamour to the collection.
