Yash Raj Films (YRF) has collaborated with Karol Bagh Saree House (KBSH) to create India’s first Bollywood inspired fashion label called Diva’ni– Where fashion romances Bollywood. YRF, one of India’s leading production houses along with KBSH, aim to serenade the splendour of Indian cinema through aspirational fashion. The objective behind the inception of Diva’ni is to create a brand that is infused with the spirit of Bollywood amalgamated with a glamour quotient that fashion adds to it. Inspired by Yash Chopra’s vision and portrayal of the diva in every woman, the first collection to be launched will be a fitting tribute to him. Commenting on the association, Rohit Sobti, YRF’s Vice President, Licensing & Merchandising said, “YRF has been looking to participate in a meaningful way in the apparel category, in order to bring the trends of Bollywood and YRF closer to the consumers. As an industry, we have been setting fashion trends for our fans worldwide over the last 100 years. Development of the brand Diva’ni is a most significant effort by any Film Studio in the world and KBSH is an ideal associate in helping us achieve our goal. With KBSH’s long-standing expertise in creating high quality designs, and always at the forefront of changing fashions over the years, we are sure that they will bring the requisite skill sets for this venture to succeed.” Sanya Dhir, Brand Director, KBSH added in a country like India where women of all age groups are so highly inspired by Indian cinema, KBSH strives to create a brand that will bring them a step closer to living their Bollywood dream. “We are very happy that India's premier studio YRF shares our vision and has joined hands with us in this very exciting endeavour. Over the last several decades, YRF has pioneered and mastered the presentation of fashion in their iconic films, and has been creating 'divas' forever. We are sure the association with YRF will bring alive our dream of celebrating the diva in every woman”, added Dhir. The two brands will give more details about the launch of the collection soon.
