RANYA SAREES
Working with Ranya Sarees, one of the UK’s largest saree
brands, I produced a contemporary take exploring
traditional clothing through a fresher and more
individual visual language. The brief was inspired by
conversations I’ve had with South Asian women who
want to experiment with how they wear traditional
clothing, but often feel constrained by the fear of
judgement or stigma.

Ranya Sarees was very excited to get this concept off the
ground, as they wanted to showcase their handwoven
silks with a bold and modern take.
Casting was therefore particularly important. With our
talent already in the UK to support the West Indies team
at the Women’s Cricket World Cup, we had just a six-hour
window to travel from Bristol to Kent, complete styling,
and capture the entire shoot.
