Interview: Designer Dalia B Mitra on Dashobhuja’s Exclusive Durga Pujo Collection
Designer Dalia B Mitra has come up with her Durga Puja Collection for her clients. The Kolkata Mail correspondent Priyanka Dutta caught up with her in an exclusive chat about her new Pujo collection. Excerpts…
What special is Dashobhuja offering during the Durga Pujas?
Dalia B Mitra- At Dashobhuja, we always try to do things in a different manner. And hence we give different types of saris to the customers all throughout the year. Dhakai work made on Liva is the newest work coming from Dashobhuja. The border and the aanchal has Dhakai work and this last for a period of fifty years. This is not the type that will get damaged easily.
I have been getting good response from the customers regarding the Dhakai saris.
Tussar in different kinds have been introduced during the Pujas.
Cotton gown dresses in affordable prices have been made for the young ladies who are studying in college. They can wear a dangler and they will look extremely ready for the pujas.
For the men, there are different kinds of Punjabis in different cuts and colours. Also available are different kinds of kurtas too.
Dashobhuja’s Divine Jewellery Collection is also available for the patrons. The collection has different kinds of pendants which consist of different gods and goddesses like Durga and her sons and daughters or Buddha and so on.
Dashobhuja has also opened in New Town and hence people who cannot come from so far can go there and buy the products.
What about matching blouses to wear with the saris?
Dalia B Mitra- Dashobhuja has come up with a tailoring section where one can get matching blouses to go with the saris. There was a demand for matching blouses among the customers and hence we thought of coming up with this section for the patrons.
Tell us something about the price of the various collections.
Dalia B Mitra- Cotton saris start from Rs 1250, Liva Dhakai within Rs 4000, Punjabis from Rs 650, Punjabis with Dhoti at Rs 2000 and so on.
So if you are already making plans for Puja shopping, Dashobhuja is the perfect place to go for your fashion needs.
