MANI JASSAL creates a garden of desire for her new collection of Indian-inspired evening and bridal wear

Evening and bridal wear line MANI JASSAL is taking their Indian-inspiredcollection to the runway on Tuesday, February 27, 2018, at the Berkeley Church in Toronto. Having shown to a select industry crowd with a presentation at Toronto Fashion Week® in partnership with RE\SET™ in early February, this will be the first time her entire latest collection, “The Garden of Desire | Erised” will be shown on a runway. Notables expected to attend the VIP reception and show include celebrities, performers, musicians, fashion editors, and influencers. 

This collection is inspired by a true narrative written by transformational coach Raz Soos which describes the journey of a young woman finding self-love through brokenness, and self-realization through the reflection of another.

“It is about her picking up her broken pieces and completely reinventing herself,” explains designer Mani Jassal, “A story where an act of vulnerability, a leap of faith, and a journey inward that gives rise to her most beautiful self, ultimately coming into who she was searching for all along. This tale transcends into the collection through the fabrics, prints, embroidery, and colours to create a collection that empowers women to love themselves.”

The “Garden of Desire | Erised” collection displays both floral and geometric prints through embroidery, lace, and prints. The collection includes a variety of unique fabrics that combine pattern, intricate surface detailing, and colour. Raw silk is used throughout many outfits alongside cotton, organza, chiffon, various laces, with embroidered tulle, ruffle detailing, mirror decals, pleating, beading, glass tassels, and sequins.

Sponsors for this event include Chic Events by Sonia, Frequency Entertainment, Xclusive Designs, Rose Events and Decor, Salon Daniel, KISS Pro Products, Finesse, Yardley, Body Fantasies, Wake and Bake by Simmy Jassal, Majestic Films, and Lost Craft Beer.

Her designs have been seen on the likes of Ashanti, Kzsenia, Ellen Wong (GLOW), Gigi Gorgeous, Rupi Kaur, Jus Reign, Nazanin Mandi, Madison Beer, Bebe Rexha, Deepica Mutyala, Sangita Patel (ET Canada), Anjali World, Sonam Bajwa, Kiran Rai, Courtney Shannon-Caines (Downsizing) for red carpet premieres during the Toronto International Film Festival, Billboard Music Awards, and more. She has been featured in the likes of Vanity Fair, Marie Claire, CBC News, FASHION Magazine, Vice, Fusia Magazine, Playboy, Elegant Wedding Magazine, Arizona Wedding, Toronto Star, and many more.
