Kindred Sisters of Jodhpur



KissinCussin has often been cited for it’s creative use of colour and for this there’s nowhere more abundant for inspiration than India … it’s a treasure chest of intoxicating imagery and an exotic, natural sense of ‘cool’.

One morning we came across a group of women sitting by the side of a road, so enchanting, their vastly colourful saris and happy charming faces all blended into a delicious feast for the eyes. These ‘sisters’ had gathered together for no other reason than an early morning sing-a-long and to be together before continuing with their day. We were delighted when they invited us to join them - at first a little shy - before 3 claps of our hands we were beaming and singing out loud with our new Hindu ‘sisters’ … another treasured experience for us to take from Jodhpur.

We’re always captivated by the mystery, the desert, the colour of Jodhpur and as mentioned above an inherent sense of ‘cool’ that just oozes out of the people … here are some images to tie up our ‘Rajasthani’ stream of posts and to show you something more of what we love xx
