Few might be aware that Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore went to Java, Indonesia, in 1927, and returned with an exquisite dyeing technique called batik. He introduced it in Shantiniketan and it spread across India. In order to bring that technique to the forefront of fashion circuits, designer Indira Ghosh Baikerikar created a collection, which contained pieces reflecting Batik prints of Shantiniketan.
