S/S ’17 collection by this designer took cues from the mystical land of India. It celebrated new forms through amalgamation of luxurious fabrics and floral and architectural prints.
The show started with upbeat music playing in the background. The hair was pulled back with dark lips and minimal makeup. Shimmer and glamour was written all over the show.
The collection had a myriad of cocktail dresses touching the floor. Some even had fish-tails to provide a feminine look. This year’s edition of the fashion week saw many new trends surfacing the ram, one such trend in this show was a slit saree made of flowing georgette material. The colour palette was inclusive of romantic colours like pastel greys, pinks, maroons and mauves. The colours had a magical soothing effect to the eyes. This collection also included menswear, mainly pastel structure suits. Oddly, yet fascinatingly, men wore choker bands and took the trend to a whole new level. Volume and flamboyancy was another aspect of the affair. Net gloves to ruffle sleeves, small details like these added to the aesthetic value of the collection. The accessory used was a sleek fringe earring often seen only on one ar. High-low clean cut hemlines also made an appearance.
It was a delicate yet grand spring affair. From fiery romance to soft summer songs, this collection was a representative of everything beautiful of the coming season.
