Going back to her Anglo-Indian French roots, Nikasha’s AW collection was meant for a free-spirited woman who loved everything that was Bohemian. A mix of elements like the almond blossom print and archived zardozi embroidery was incorporated onto languid and eclectic silhouettes. Traditional saris were embroidered to perfection, as tasseled messenger bags were an absolute must-have accessory. Off-shoulder crepe gowns were accompanied by sequined necklines and embellished cap sleeves. Gandhian pants and Patiala trousers were worn over layered spaghetti tops with scooping necks and appliquéd floral patterns. Kimono shawls and turbans were worn with silk-chiffon blouses, as bordered dupattas were accompanied with hand-painted box-clutches. A lot of fringing could be seen done on unstructured capes that were fluid and airy, as models were enveloped in a bold color palette of rouge, deep mustard, dusty pink and faded tangerine.
