It is part reportage, part research and at the heart lies fashion. Here the stories paid homage to not just silk but the idea of veiling and the manner in which cloth is politicised, from France to Iran. At it's heart, is also a travelers guide taking you from Assam to Italy, in a voyage of discovery.
