The inspiration for JJ Valaya’s show at the ongoing PCJ Delhi Couture Week 2012 was the Ottoman Empire, and his post-show party’s theme was also an extension of the same. Some of the models who walked for JJ’s show were also spotted here. Daria, who had walked for Varun Bahl earlier in the evening, told us that she was there for a quick drink because she had work the next day as well.
When we asked Carol Gracias about her reported wedding, she told us, “It’s a very personal matter. I don’t want to speak about it.”
This event also introduced a business association between Fashion One International and JJ Valaya Luxury Weddings. This new venture will specialise in destination weddings.
Vijay Singh, MD, Fashion One International, said, “The purpose of coming together as JJ Valaya Luxury Weddings is to establish a credible design platform for sophisticated wedding concepts and back it up with impeccable hospitality and management services. Our approach to wedding planning is sophisticated, personalized and professional.”
JJ added, “Since the birth of our brand, we’ve connected with the glory and grandeur of India. So, it was a natural progression for us to expand our horizon into creative direction and conceptualization of the refined luxury that forms the setting for these unique extravaganzas, the great Indian Wedding.”
Apart from this, a marquee event on this concept will be held at The Grand, Vasant Kunj from August 10-12, and is open to the public from 11am to 8pm.
