New Delhi, 24th February 2008: Showcasing his Spring/Summer'09 Collection, Nitin Bal Chauhan reverberates the dismal side of domestic life through his eloquent fashions. "Conditions Apply: Part I", The Domestic Collection probes into the dim realities of mundane metropolitan lives.

About the Collection:

As one of the world's fastest growing third world countries, millions perish and succumb to external and internal conflicts. Never before exposed to such standards, a generation is caught in a perpetual fight for survival. Today, the young and old of the many metropolises wake up each day to follow an order and contribute to the journey of a nation, culture and civilization.

Probing into the shadows, Nitin exposes the somber shades of domestic life. He assimilates textures and expression by means of intricately meticulous techniques like batik, shibori, tie & dye, screen-printing and digital printing. The nine narratives depicted in this collection are Senior citizens, Divorce, Vanity, Deliverance, Sealing, Accidents, Mediocrity, Suicides and Urbanization. Immaculately employing colors, textures, Weaving, symbolism and metaphors, this collection uses nylons, satins, chiffons and 100% organic cottons.

Articulating the fashion quintessence of modern day mayhem, this domestic collection comprises of fitted and gathered dresses, bow tops and halter necks mixed and matched with an array of accessories.
