A journey from Calcutta to Kolkata
Kolkata is a city of culture and carrier of traditional fashion. We being a design institute catch the flavour
of Bengali to Cosmopolitan transformation in fashion and interior field. In the fifty years of period we
have shown how people change from British Calcutta to pure indigenous Kolkata through the typical
demographic fashion to cosmopolitan fashion both in dresses as well as in the art of living.
In this exhibition we are portraying popular Bengali Chaya-Chobi (Shadow Picture) to modern multiplex
movies, how dresses and attire have crossed the typical local concept to globalization, how the origin of
cinema, the studio has been reborn with new facilities. We are showing the confluence of hip-hop &
street art fashion in a stall. Another stall exhibits the changes in hosting of a famous restaurant with the
changes from Calcutta to Kolkata, along with the dwelling habits from big joint family to tiny nuclear
family, how the metamorphosis of peoples silently bursts in due course of globalization.
