The Beaded Dress: Esther Jamir




One of the first posts on this blogger, when I started as a student in July 2005 [now removed] was about Esther Jamir [Model & Entreprenuer]. It is not to say that my fascination obsession for her started way before, back in the days when one of the boys in our college at Kohima had photos of her from school [either stolen or bought from a photo studio]. J





Finally got the opportunity to work with her on a short film, which I plan to exhibit as a series. We already shot some scenes last December. It's an absolute joy to be sharing these pictures that were photographed during the process of filming. 

Special mention to Shradha Jain for assisting me in the process of hand-beading this dress. Shout out to Aneeth Arora, Gunjan Ahlawat, Hommiza Mimila Raman & Shishir Jha for the support. More updates soon.



The beaded dress featuring Esther Jamir can be seen on my new website.

  1. I love your curious, whimsical, encouraging nature - and the transience of your work. Such a contrast to some designers' self-important, self-aggrandising nonsense.
