Mumbai’s weekly pick-tionary of Lakme Fashion Week Summer/ Resort 2010.
Anita Dongre’s all-white collection, confusingly, is named after the Pink City. Still, a pretty show.
Babita Malkani’s Bhutan-inspired rompers, drafted from durris, are super cute. Don’t bale on this one!
Christopher Kane tells a tabloid that he likes Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan, but can’t quite remember his full name. This year’s biggest fashion malfunction.
Front Row: Urmila Matondkar, Raveena Tandon, Dino Morea, Celina Jaitley, Neha Dhupia attend. Freida Pinto, however flies down from Montreal exclusively for Brit designer Christopher Kane. No slumming it out in the desi shows for her.
Kachindo is Gujarati for chameleon, and also the name of designer Purvi Doshi’s line of four layered reversible garments that can be worn inside out and upside down. Nice positioning!
Kallol Datta does a cool Kitty Kat sari and darker Suicide, Genocide and Eulogy dresses. Cheery!
Malini Ramani’s show is sponsored by Grey Goose, and in marketing overkill she names each of her four segments after cocktails. Toast!
Masaba’s (Nina Gupta and Sir Vivian Richard’s) debut show attended by Jackie Shroff, who sat in the photographer’s pit. Probably the only way he’d get clicked.
Neelanjan Ghosh’s rainbow-hued retro bags start at an affordable Rs 1,700. Float this tote!
Paromita Bannerji – they’re calling her the next big thing – gives the traditional sari several new twists.
Ramp Rating: Starry showstoppers (r)amped the shows this season – Bipasha Basu for Rocky S; Mugdha Godse for Priya Kataria Puri; Rohit Verma for Krishna Mehta; Billiard player Pankaj Advani and Harman Baweja for Babita Malkani and Pooja Bedi for Riyaz Gangji.
Rimzim Dadu’s models wear military shoes, bomber jackets with cut-outs and amazingly textured pieces. We’d drop and give her hundred for the green tulip dress with bronze armour-like detailing.
Sabyasachi Mukherji’s 70’s inspired dresses are apparently spurred on by a “mid-life crises”. You’re not that old!
Shantanu and Nikhil paint Mumbai black and yellow with their sporty Moto Chic line for Adidas. While actress Deepika Padukone motored down the ramp in a striped top, tennis ace Sania Mirza looked on, wearing almost an identical outfit. Seems these two have more than Shahid Kapoor in common!
Suneet Varma’s slinky dresses and roaring animal print maxis at the finale Night Fever show reflected light from giant disco balls, with Medival Punditz and Shai’r and Func manning the music. Groovy way to bid LFW goodbye!
