Revamping a wardrobe can be a big mood enhancer that can uplift spirits to revel in the upcoming festive season.

The trendy and versatile prints can be tailored into multiple looks for several occasions – be it a casual hangout with friends, a clubbing night, or the long awaited road trip.
 
Speaking during the launch Suket Dhir said; “It was good to see Raymond come up with ‘VIBEZ’. Our interpretation for it is multi-utilitarian, versatile, cool and trendy. How clothing can change the entire atmosphere around the person wearing it, is well documented. We have played around with the fabrics in a classic SUKETDHIR style. The colours and patterns are such that it expresses the vibe or the mood of the wearer. A collection that is perfect to brighten up a gloomy winter day, and the combination of linens and corduroys to keep the cool breeze out and cool quotient in.”
