On
Day 2, Lakme Fashion Week gave a platform to quite a few first timers
including new designers and debutante showstoppers, who added freshness
to the fashionable proceedings
My niece, my show: Goan designer Wendell Rodricks opened and closed his show with niece Tegan, who seemed comfortable taking the lead spot among all the models in the show. Digressing from his usual palette of subtle hues, Wendell's clothes burst with pop hues, even though his silhouettes remained as fluid as ever.
Presenting a mix of menswear and womenswear, Wendell once again put together a show which was applauded both for its aesthetic appeal as wearability quotient. Among others, we spotted Sonali Kulkarni and her husband Nachiket, as well as Arshad Warsi and Maria Goretii.
Festive fervour: Priyadarshini Rao's evening show was high on glamourous attendees as it was on glamourous clothes. Sticking to the winter/festive theme of the week, Priyadarshini popped open a palette of festive hues and textiles, working with golds, reds and beiges. She added to the drama of the show with six strategically placed large mirrors, magnifying the impact of the clothes and the hairstyles many times over.
Offbeat detailing: Inspired by retro fashion ads, Nimish Shah's collection featured feminine clothes with soft constructions. The designer cleverly blended oversized baggy shapes with lean silhouettes, and was applauded for his universally wearable designs suitable for women across categories.
Twilight seduction: Taking the time of twilight as her inspiration, Komal Sood infused her collection with colours, and interesting silhouettes, but chose to dress her showstopper Sidhartha Mallya in conventional black. However, we wonder why Mallya Jr chose to keep a sombre face throughout. A little smile would have done wonders, we think.
An evening in Paris: Stylist turned designer Pernia Qureshi played it safe with her debut collection. The designer used beads and zippers well, adding delicate patches of embroidery on her clothes. However, as expected, the styling was chic, and so was her front row which included friend and producer Rhea Kapoor. But, it was Amy Jackson, her showstopper, who was under maximum scrutiny for her slightly awkward ramp presence.
Pac man package: Remember Pac Man — that addictive computer game we've all played? That's where newbie Yogesh Chaudhary found the calling for his collection. Hinting at American fashion of the 20s, 50s and 80s, the line was full of Pac Man motifs and Pac Man inspired jewellery.
Inspired by Lady Gaga: Pooja Bedi's daughter Aalia met us on Day 1 of the fashion week, and told us that she wasn't really interested in fashion as a career and wanted to become a lawyer instead. However, on Day 2, we saw her transform into a natty fashionista. Shutterbugs went into a frenzy as soon as Aalia walked in with mommy, courtesy her footwear. Flaunting heelless spiked shoes a la Lady Gaga, Aalia towered over many in the front row, and confidently walked her way through the maze of guests. We must say that the girl is taking her lessons well from the fashion week!
