krishnaa shyam BATH LOOK BOOK
2019-20
modern canvases for folk-art inspired patterns and motifs
Hello there! I’m a surface pattern designer based in the beautiful heritage city of Bath. My luxurious and unique scarves create a new west-to-east aesthetic that appeals to fashionable and ethically aware women. My scarves use new folk-inspired Indian patterns that break away from the tired cliché of paisleys and flowers, and are printed on the finest crépe silk and a unique blend of cashmere-modal. This look book contains two collections: Full Circle and Signature.
Full Circle Collection The “Full Circle� collection is a selection of patterns born from a deep need to create a product that bonded with its inspirations. Each pattern is inspired by the delightful sights, sounds and smells of the small Indian town of Chettinad in India. The prints seen here form a limited edition collection. The concept goes full circle through innovative keepsake packaging that uses sustainable palmyra boxes handmade by women artisans of Chettinad itself.

Signature Collection
My signature collection is inspired by British fashion, Indian folk art, the smell of the seasons, colourful florals and childhood memories. My patterns embody the beautiful outward-looking Britain that I have loved since moving to Bath over a decade ago. As these patterns are simply an embodiment of my own journey, I hope that you’ll never be able to tell precisely where one inspiration stops and the other begins!
