Ten years. That&rsquo;s how long it has taken Saviojon Fernandes to revisit Mumbai fashion week after his last showcase in 2007. &ldquo;I was waiting for an opportunity where I had something to say, something to show,&rdquo; says the famed-for-his-reticence Goan designer.
On February 4, Saviojon will show &ldquo;not a collection but a wardrobe of 35 travel-friendly separates&rdquo;. He calls them a celebration of experiences from his sojourns. Known to pit wholesome prettiness against the imperfection of whimsical textures, raw seams and selvedge detailing, Saviojon, this time, uses out-of-production buttons, lace and ribbons picked up from flee markets in Brussels, London&rsquo;s Portobello and Mumbai&rsquo;s Chor Bazaar to make sweet love to a riot of prints including gingham and Madras checks, African wax (he acquired a taste for it while studying pattern cutting at Central Saint Martins, London, in 2013), and raffia (tropical foliage) against cotton and silk.

Inspired by close-toe hotel slippers, his bejewelled luxe footwear packs in a swish punch. &ldquo;I don&rsquo;t think embellishment is something anyone expects from me. This is an attempt to bring luster into things, light and sheen into the mundane.&rdquo;
It&rsquo;s a slight deviation from his achingly simplistic approach to &ldquo;anytime, anywhere&rdquo; clothing. &ldquo;The current mood is not as exciting for fashion or retail. Hence, the need for feel-good separates with global appeal; colourful and frivolous with a crazy detail here and there. Why not?&rdquo; he says, displaying but a fleeting moment of indulgence that he isn&rsquo;t used to befriending.

Did demonetisation do the unthinkable -- nudge a crusader of effortlessly simple garments to appreciating indulgence?&nbsp;
