THE NOUVEAU OATH BY KATTA PRASANNA
Advance Diploma in Fashion Design
“The Nouveau Oath,” KATTA PRASANNA offers a heartfelt tribute to the quiet power of beauty in nature, winning the “Most Innovative & Best Executed Collection Award” for her visionary craftsmanship and poetic storytelling. This collection is more than fashion—it’s a promise to honor nature’s grace through design, where tradition and innovation coexist in perfect harmony.
“The Nouveau Oath” is a poetic fusion of nature, innovation, and timeless elegance. Designed by KATTA PRASANNA, the collection draws deep inspiration from the ethereal beauty of the Art Nouveau movement—an era defined by flowing lines, organic forms, and an emotional connection to nature. Reimagined through a contemporary lens, this Spring/Summer 2026 collection breathes new life into tradition with bold material choices and modern silhouettes.
Delicate floral motifs and nature-inspired curves are sculpted into form using aluminum crinolines, offering structure without sacrificing softness. These lightweight frameworks mimic the graceful flow of vines and petals, creating silhouettes that appear to bloom around the body. Stencil work, layered with precision, adds intricate surface detail, echoing the ornamental charm of Art Nouveau with a fresh, architectural edge.
Every piece is designed to move like a breeze through branches: elegant, effortless, and emotionally resonant.
