Indian Inspired...Isn't It Incredible?

Last year Mr. Marc Jacobs launched a special collection in celebration of Diwali. He used fabrics from Indian sarees. The fabric he used in this special collection brought the colour, freshness and truly expressed the richness of the Indian culture. His use of an authentic sari material brought this small collection worth more than just a couple hundred dollars!

Although it looked lovely in the picture. I'm not sure how many people actually purchased a dress from this collection.

Personally I love this idea, well why wouldn't I. Haha. The Bollywood in me just loves when designers mix the East with the West or visa versa.
