Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week Autumn/Winter 2013 - Recap Part I

I had a bunch of Wills Fashion week pictures with me and It's not everyday that I click such good pictures (by my standards ofcourse) so I thought of putting these up to a better use. And while putting these together, I'd been secretly wishing I could take the next flight to Mumbai and watch Lakme Fashion Week. Ugh the bug has bitten :)

Anywho!

Siddartha Tytler's collection was predominantly about Little Gorgeous Black Dresses, bodycon, glittery, sheer and every ingredient you need for Sexy. Anupamaa Dayal's collection titled 'Ishq-e-dilli' was flowy black and whites and took us back to the Mughal era. It was a dreamy affair, the only thing I dislike are Bikini Sarees. They just don't make sense to me (Sorry I was busy disliking it therefore No picture, you can google and see what I'm talking about though). Nikasha's collection called 'Raat Ki Rani' was a little run-of-the-mill, except for the lovely version of patiala bottoms shown in the picture.

Pankaj & Nidhi's Collection, called The Music Box had hints of baroque with contrasting hues and contrasting cuts - Flares in some and clean, straight cuts in others.

Sumptous Flares and very couture line-up of Indian Ethnic. I had plenty of favorites in this one! Style Curry Recommends :)

The huge Red bindis were consistent throughout the Abraham & Thakore show, oozing substance and elegance through meshy golds. While Rajdeep Ranawat left me a little baffled, even though the clothes were all swagger but some pieces were confusingly OTT. Namrarta Joshipura's show, however, was classy impressive both in direction and apparel.

Taking cues from the 90s and using Indian textiles, was Rina Dhaka's show at the WIFW. It was about no-fuss straight cuts and drop-waists.
