Showcasing some of the head turning looks on the ramp as well, the gala fashion show was split into two sessions – the Bollywood inspired hair trends and the most popular looks that have evolved over the last decade. The first session was totally engaging with models not only sporting the retro look in their attires and hair do but also dancing to the tunes of Dum Maro Dum…, Piya Tu ab toh aaja, Kaj ra re and the likes. High on energy level, the dramatic hair styles kept changing from bouffant, pony tails, long straight hair to soft curls and French rolls for women while the punk look of Dhoom or the cool dude spikes and feather cuts made the male models rock as well. There was an interesting use of head gears and hair accessories like bands, clips, feathers and the likes to make the appeal even more stunning and stylish.
The second session put forward the ‘must have’ Essential looks such as – short blunt, long flicks, thick fringes, boho- chic red streaks, blond mesh, yellow stands intervened, soft, messy curls and ironed straight hair looks. There was a great emphasis on ‘easy-to-wear’ hair styles keeping in mind the fast pace lifestyle in today’s world. Model and actress Sonal Singh Chauhan walked the ramp as the show stopper. Her side locks hung as loose French rolls adding softness to the face, while the mid length hair was lightly twigged to add a wavy look that was complete with soft curls at the edges.
With the end of a decade in the 2k era the world seems to be evolving a bit more conscious, a bit more responsible, a bit more awake and also equally progressive. There has been a collective rise in the conscious levels from corners far and wide with every individual involved in something to make the difference reverberate.
