Pujasree Vatsa

SAUDADE

‘Saudade’ is a deep emotional state of nostalgic longing for someone you love. This collection explores aspects of Saudade like emptiness, connection and blurred memories. As a designer Pujasree knows whatever she does has an impact on the plant so she always uses inputs with minimal impact to help reduce pollution, she always uses natural materials which are biodegradable. Pujasree was inspired by the adaptability, and adjustable nature of the sari which flatters most body types and so made her collection adjustable and adaptable with timeless design.
