Lakme Fashion Week Winter Festive 2014 Day 4

PRANAV MISHRA AND SHYMA SHETTY EMPOWERED THE FAIRER SEX WITH THEIR STRIKING COLLECTION AT LAKMÉ FASHION WEEK WINTER/FESTIVE 2014

‘HUEMN’ by Pranav Mishra and Shyma Shetty made another powerful statement through their clothing line at Lakmé Fashion Week Winter/Festive at 2014. The fascinating duo enticed the crowd and created a line that threw light on the battles of a fearless woman. They based it on the delicacy and softness of the ideal woman that subtly yearned for masculine separates.

The constant change was depicted in the form of androgynous styling. This transformed into a dubious contrast with the character of the fabric, the craftsmanship and the colour that balanced it out. Importance was given to both the trouser and skirt that rendered it equivocal.

Musings of underground literature were the main highlight was presented in the broken fabric and placement of the eclectic prints. Restructured evergreen silhouettes were fused with the futuristic materials and embellishment detailing that gave it the perfect urbanised demeanour.

Fabrics like vinyl, cotton, silk, hosiery and classic suiting fabrics took centre stage as the chaos was merged to form serene silhouettes like the pants in suit fabrics that were designed to look sporty. A mehendi green pencil skirt with a white stripe and an oversized black jumper was another ensemble that stood out. 

Men’s wear had plain white shirt with a leafy appliqué in the shape of an ‘O’.  Also seen was a classic grey suit sporting white striped patches and ankle grazed pants. This made the collection wearable for both the sexes.

‘Huemn’ by Pranav Mishra and Shyma Shetty set forth a barrier breaking collection of epic clothing that gracefully and effortlessly took the ramp up by a storm. It was not only empowering but also perfect for the fashionista making a statement without a word. 

AMRITA KHANNA AND GURSI SINGH PRESENTED AN URBAN DIGNIFIED COLLECTION AT JABONG STAGE DURING LAKMÉ FASHION WEEK WINTER/FESTIVE 2014

Urban, dignified and unique were three words that best described the city slick collection under the label ‘Lovebirds’, inspired by urban issues from designer duo Amrita Khanna and Gursi Singh at Jabong Stage during Lakmé Fashion Week Winter/Festive 2014.

Lovebirds

Trendy, straight cut silhouettes made their way onto the ramp in the form of skirts, tops, shirts, trousers, jackets, tunics and dresses in simple yet stylish fabrics like cottons, satins along with neoprene and mesh.  

Lovebirds

Pastel tones in mint green, pure white, elegant black, denim blue and nude brown worked to give the range a fresh appeal.

Although quirky, the outfits were spared of heavy embellishments or layers, to make way for an easy-to-wear style that was practical and stylish. Subtle structure and laser cut pieces made each outfit distinct and unique.

A sassy architectural dress in white, stole the spotlight with its androgynous appeal and intricate cut-outs, which gave off a sporty-fun vibe.

To further reflect the flow between the traditional and the unconventional, embellishments complemented vintage techniques like beading and weaving onto New-Age textiles and almost- androgynous forms.

Two stunning ensembles which caused a fashion stir comprised a gorgeous leaf green woman’s coat accentuated by fabric detailing, which was paired with clean cut trousers and a pair of mint toned see-through pants flaunting fabric flowers.
