Ajun's Khanna's return to India in 1989
evoked a major change in his approach to fashion. Graduating
from the American College of fashion in London, Art has always
been his first love - the only subject he excelled in since
childhood. What followed were a course at the Blackheath College
of Art in London and a photographic course from Pillia's school
of photography.
He started off with what he felt to be a challenge -'Men's
wear '. His first collection was aimed at a limited audience
- men's western wear featuring the Oxford look followed by
the Dick Tracy line of 30s and 40s. "It was a period when
I designed for my own satisfaction and my clothes were wild
and at that time unwearable."
Starting with a mens line at Ensemble' Arjun has spread his
collection to Vama in Mumbai and Santoshti in Delhi. It shows
so clearly his eye for detail. He has designed for Padamsee's
production 'Begam Sumroo' and styled for the winners of the
'Graviera contest.
Garments with clean styling and cut, embroidery used judiciously
and a good finish make an Arjun ensemble. Experiments with
trends have always interested him. His silhouettes vary without
prior warning. The garments appeal is not restricted to its
outer appearance only. The lining of the garment plays a major
role so do the seams hems fusing and the internal mechanisms.
