Rina Shah’s Polo line gallops into EBOs

Accessories designer Rina Shah -- who participated in the Lakme

Fashion Week (LFW) Summer/Resort 2011 for the very first time is now available at all Rinaldi stores. She is well-known for her brand, House of Rinaldi Designs. Now, her stores will be showcasing her signature style of embellishments with crystals and colored stones with this glamorous line also comprising equestrian and polo prints on large bags with bamboo handles.

Her love for horses and Polo inspired her to create the unique 'Rinaldi Polo' line which is a sporty chic collection. Her distinct design touches are visible in the use of crystals and colored stones as well as polo prints on the oversized bags that were sashayed by the models. The equestrian theme was brought to life with saddle bags with trimmings, reins handles on oversize bags, spur straps with crystals and feathers along with an innovative collection of boots and belts. “Being so passionate about the sport and being with horses every day of my life, I thought it would be great to do a line that comes from the heart,” says Shah.

Looking like a model herself, Shah ended her LFW show walking the ramp with three top polo players, Angad Kalan, Kamran Ahmed and Shrinivas Bobade. Using vibrant embellishments for the footwear and bags featuring scenes from the sport, the collection was stunning in visual appeal on the ramp and will be a hit on the fashion circles and at exclusive Rinaldi stores. The Rinaldi Polo line will indeed gallop ahead for lovers of sporty high fashion bags and accessories and will be retailed from her exclusive stores. This will add to her collection of trendy kids and women’s shoes, handbags, belts and coordinates of bags and shoes such as faux fur and silver Swarovski sets of shoes and clutch bags among others.
