The origins of Indo-western combodresseshave always been a source of debate. People believe it was introduced somewhere during the British Raj due to the ornate styling and courteous layering.
However, Wendell Rodricks, a Goan-based designer who was awarded the Padma Shri in 2014 and was also one of the most sought-after American designers in the top 10, is convinced that these magnificent gowns originated in Goa. He reflected on the origins of these beautiful dresses and marveled at their beauty, and penned a book called Moda Goa. In this book, he explained the richness and exclusivity of fabrics used to stitch these dresses. The book also had spectacular photographs by Mark Sequeira and Bharat Ramamurtham of ordinary people and Bollywood celebrities donning this look.
