In today’s environmentally conscious world, eco-friendly bridal fashions are becoming very stylish and still provide the comfort and breathable look of organic clothing. More and more designers are creating organic ready-to-wear and custom-designed garments for weddings and other special occasions. In this article, I write about my recent conversations with designer Shubhra Chandra and her recent wedding designs for Boston Channel 7 News reporter Sorboni Banerjee and her husband Jarrod Holbrooke of Boston Channel 5 News for their fall 2009 wedding.

A key desire of Sorboni and Shubhra was to create bridal wear that fused the meeting of hearts of two people who come from two different traditions: Sorboni with her Indian-American background and Jarrod with his Texan-American heritage. The goal was for east to meet west in a way that would look beautiful and rich, but not overwhelm the reason two people come together. That reason is love where two hearts are willing to hug each other and embrace their background.

Additionally, Sorboni wanted to use a designer that works with environmentally responsible processes and eco-friendly materials for their wedding apparel. Shubrah Designs, from the day it was conceived, has followed these concepts. Many designers who support eco-friendly clothing donate a percentage of sales to non-profit organizations involved in improving the lives of poor women and children around the world.

To get the designs right and the materials right, Shubhra, Sorboni, and others worked together on sketches, colors, fabrics, silhouettes, and embellishments. The fabrics, such as Benarasi silk sarees and hand-woven Baluchari scarves, were sourced in India. Jewelry and brocade stoles were matched in Delhi, and handmade ties were designed to match the dresses. The designs, fabrics, and various sittings were combined to create the final ensembles.

Sorboni’s wedding dress was a rich golden bridal corset made from Benarasi sari material combined with silk and other materials. Soboni’s dress concept sketch photography can be found on the Shubrah Designs blog.

The blog also features a photograph of Sorboni in the bride’s rehearsal dinner dress made from a hand-woven silk scarf in Bengal, India, photographs of bridesmaid dresses made from Benarasi silk sarees, groom and mother of the bride. dress.
