There are some names in the fashion industry of Bangladesh, which are not just a brand, but another name for a lifestyle, a taste, a self-identity that has developed over time. In recent times, the name of Twelve Clothing has inevitably been mentioned at the forefront of those names. At busy intersections in the city, in bright showrooms, or on the colorful screens of social media before the festival, Twelve is an inseparable presence associated with the heartbeat of every family member, starting from today’s youth. Their new collection on the occasion of this Eid ul Fitr has taken that presence to a deeper, more aesthetic level, a press release said.
Eid means returning to oneself, to loved ones, to childhood. After a long month of restraint, when the holy Shawwal moon peeks into the sky at the end of Ramadan, every Bengali’s house is decorated. The closet is filled with the smell of new clothes. Standing in front of the mirror is a silent joy of rediscovering oneself. Twelve’s Eid collection this year tells the story of that discovery. Named Threads of Celebration. A different story that is written in the fashion taste of a confident, independent and modern Bengali.
The main idea of this collection has revolved around the combination of tradition and contemporaneity. The craftsmanship, design and color atmosphere of the old days have been combined with modern cuts, silhouettes and textures in such a way that each garment has become a moving canvas in itself. Here, the festival does not mean just glitter, there is a deep root pull, there is a unique tone of Bengali.
This year’s arrangement for women is especially rich. Silk, muslin, lawn, cotton or viscose, various types of fabrics have been adorned with delicate craftsmanship. Sometimes soft pastels, sometimes bright coral or emerald colors, there is the excitement of the season, and again there is the beauty of restraint. Long kurtas, flowy gowns, straight cut three-pieces or subtle touches of embroidery, all in all a variety where every woman can find a look that matches her mind.
The use of embroidery is particularly noticeable in this collection. Fine threadwork, lace, sequins or tone-on-tone embroidery, all have been done with a sense of proportion. The key here is not excessive embellishment but sophisticated elegance. The philosophy that clothes should not hide the wearer, but rather illuminate his personality is clear in every design.
Twelve has also paid special attention to men’s Eid arrangements. Punjabi has always been an integral part of Eid. But how to present that Punjabi anew every time is the creative challenge for Twelve’s designers. This collection sees the use of dark blue, maroon and olive colors along with classic white, off-white or pastel shades. Straight cuts, minimal collar details, subtle embroidery, or textured fabric, all combine to create a sense of elegance that is both traditional and modern.
