The designer will be showcasing her collection called the Spectrum. As the name suggests she has used an array of vibrant colours. Prints have always been one of ‘Gayatri’s’ forte. Geometric as well as ornate prints which have a global appeal have been ingeniously used to create stylized drapes and interesting silhouettes in rich fabrics like silk jersey, satins and satin faced chiffons. The zipper detailing, cutwork and the exquisitely embroidered and sheeted ensembles give an ideal blend of glamour and European luxe-prêt. With all these elements put together, this collection makes a perfect offering for the fashion forward London city which is the melting pot of world fashion.

and hustle around that room and find another dress that has not been assigned!! Imagine what we go through. One dress here, a pair or two of shoes there. It can have that ripple effect. Going into the last calls before each girl is lined up backstage is another production in itself. Everyone has a job and does it well. Hair has to re-touch and any last looks, while makeup is doing any lotion for hydration, color lips, powder down, etc. Wardrobe is making sure dresses are all properly place, buttoned, zippered, etc. Backstage Manager making sure all girls lined up properly and in order. Producer Andres Aquino doing final touches with music/lighting.
and makeup team is irreplaceable. Most importantly, working together as a team, and taking it one step at a time, always helps you shine!
