Samsaara, the multi brand store hosted an exclusive sneak peek into Wills India Fashion Week, with an exclusive preview of the works of Vineet Bahl, Pankaj and Nidhi, Poonam Bhagat and Pia Pauro.
All four collections had an easy to wear feel. Vineet Bahl‘s "Awaadh" collection is all about silhouettes which are reminiscent of the Awadhi culture. ‘Angarakhas’ in varying lengths, and floor length ‘Jamas’ are worn over ‘khule pahuche wali shalwars’ (wide legged shalwars). As usual travel is an inspiration for Pia Pauro collection which is an ode to the mountainous terrain of Central Asia. Her collection "Mountain Chic" brings alive the nomadic experience of Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan.
Taika by Poonam Bhagat Fall/Winter 2013 collection takes you on a sensuous after dinner walk along with midnight blue Rhone. Pankaj & Nidhi’s has titled their collection as "Music Box" and it is a tribute to music and the fascinating forms of orchestral musical instruments like trumpets, harps, mandolins, ukuleles and acoustic guitars. Along the journey of creating this collection, they were also drawn to the baroque period where music expanded the size, range, and
complexity of instrumental performance, and also established opera as a musical genre.
Sneaking in the preview were FDCI President Sunil Sethi, Tanisha Mohan, Harmeet Bajaj, David Abraham & Rakesh Thakore, Ruchika Mehta Sanjay Sharma, Jas Arora, Deepika Gehani, Sujata Assomull Sippy and many others…
