A splash of colours

The recently launched ‘Spring Summer 12’ collection is inspired from the pop culture of the late 70s and early 80s.

Extensive use of colour, a pop art feel of the 80s mixed with modern witty styling, has given a certain twist to the collection, which depicts the unique approach.

The latest collection in the range of shirts and trousers is divided into ‘Tailored Collection’ for formal wear, ‘Relaxed Collection’ for casual wear, ‘Luxury Collection’ for evening wear, ‘Rare Collection’ for a premium range and ‘T-Shirt Collection’ for the young at heart.

“The dominant colours in the collection are burnt orange, lavender, orchid, grapevines and the mints. Teal and midnight blue will complete the palette while neutrals like black, grey melange and white comprise the basic core group. Green and its mint tones have emerged as the strong colour of the latest collection,” informs Shitanshu Jhunjhunwalla, director, Turtle Limited.

“The brand offers a wide array of products in apparel and accessories like T-shirts, suits, blazers, denims, ties, night wear, travelling kit, cuff links, wallets, belts, socks and laptop bags which suite for every occasion maintaining the highest standards in quality and in tune with international design and fashion trends,” he informs.

According to the designing team, formal trousers with super crease technology
and slim-fitted trousers are the popular choices among men.

Formal and luxury shirts are known for smooth fabric and long durability, they say.
Collared and polo neck T-shirts with smart styling and prints have all the elements to attract the young crowd.

Tailored and linen suits and jackets, blazers and gilet in lean look will complete one’s party wear requirements. “We offer the best quality products at the most affordable price which makes our customers brand loyal. This helps us stay ahead in this competitive industry,” sums up Shitanshu.
