बद्तमीज़ badtameez betis
1. bad girl or ill-mannered daughters
2. rude girl
Little girls should be seen not heard.
This collection represents the misfits, the daughters that were told they were bad girls, because they didn’t follow all the rules. That were judged by their hemlines, their audacity, their neurodivergence and told to keep quiet.
We take back our place.
The graphic style and colors in this collection pay homage to the exuberant bus and truck art found throughout India and my deep exploration into my Indian heritage and love for my culture. Stay badtameez, Betis.
