The spring-summer appeal!

Here was a show which showcased works of new designers and gave them a platform to reach the skies.
So with stars in their eyes, the show started with Imcha Imchen from Nagaland. Inspired by bravery and power, Imcha used feathered headgear, checkered weaves and woven handlooms.
Anand Bhushan showed some Shibori tie-and-dye clothes with Origami inspirations.Delicate cuts, the outfits were made in Bhuj with bamboo motifs which were very wearable. Then came the duo of Priyanka Verma and Ravindra Mohan who flaunted heavy cotton jerseys. Yellow and green crochet work made these western silhouettes very chic.
Nidhi Gambhir came with women walking on spring evenings in New York. In classic shift dresses, she used digital images of birds to show the freedom of women today. Corsetted-necklines were neat and trendy. Manoj Dubey was influenced by Euphoria and played it up with green sequins on shorts, gloves and pleated pink tunics with applique work. Sanjay Hingu used cool colour palettes and a mixed street look with an urbane touch. The finish was extremely good.
Harangat Singh used Indian handloom and eco-friendly fabrics like khadi. With designs which were elongated and high-waisted, there were shrugs with scooped out shoulders in muted colours. Rimi Nayak used lot of Batik, Kantha and the hand-block printed look in jute like fabrics.
There was a heavy Edwardian feel with a mixture of textures. The designer duo of Kiran Jaisinghani and Meghna Agarwal showed a feminine line with Peter Pan necks in flowy silk dresses. Embroidered threadwork and layering was impressive. The concluding designer was Ritesh Kumar who was inspired by the peeling texture of onions. Using spiral layering, a very young line which was immaculately done showed their efforts.
