Tarun Tahiliani at Indian Couture Week

A favourite for all those brides out there, Tarun Tahiliani, showcased an amazing bridal collection. The collection is to die for and what really stood out was the attention to the smallest of details. It’s the perfect blend of traditional and modern. The play with colours definitely offers something new to the audience. The collection played around with Chikankari, Kasheedakari, Byzantine art, Persian motifs and Egyptian Jaalis. It doesn’t get better than this right? Sounds rather exquisite which it definitely is. The collection was nothing short of magical. The outfits were almost star-studded!

Rohit Gandhi and Rahul Khanna’s Equinox

Rohit Gandhi and Rahul Khanna’s collection Equinox truly had us stunned. Playing around with the colours of the night sky the collection is aptly named. So the idea behind this collection was to represent the Autumn equinox and hence you can see the play with geometric shapes and patterns. We definitely love the use of 3D embroidery techniques that definitely attracts the eye to these splendid designs. These outfits definitely all glitz and glamour and would definitely make anyone stand out in them. Shobita Dhulipala looks nothing short of ethereal in this amazing silver outfit.

Rimzim Dadu’s Hydrochromic at Indian Couture Week

This was definitely one collection we couldn’t get our eyes off of! Look at the stunning pieces. These outfits were definitely unique and unlike anything seen before. Ananya Pandey as the show stopped looked gorgeous in the whole golden ensemble by Dadu. She’s played around with metallic threads with the whole outfit and has come up with some great designs. Her inspiration for these outfits has been water. She has tried paying homage to water by reflecting, form, power and versatility. She has played around with abstract designs to depict the ebb and flow of water as is very evident in this wavy pink and blue outfit. We sure are in love, what about you?

Dolly J’s Selene

Dolly J present her beautiful collection “Selene” for India Couture Week. With Disha Patani strutting the ramp as a show stopper her collection definitely looked transcendental.

You can say a play with pearls, metallic elements, silver sequins and more. All this definitely makes the outfits shine. The name is truly a representation of the collection for it is the name for the Greek goddess of the moon and that is exactly what this collection has effortlessly managed to depict.

Here are some trends we noticed and the India Couture week!

Fishtails

Designers artfully incorporated this elegant silhouette into their collections, infusing a touch of allure and drama. Fishtail gowns and lehengas gracefully cascaded, adding a contemporary twist to traditional couture and captivating fashion experts. From Kiara to Ananya to Disha, most of them could be seen with a trail at the ends of their dresses.

Bold Prints & Patterns

Vibrant and daring, bold prints and patterns took centre stage. No doubt, designers played around with and showcased intricate motifs, geometric designs, and vivid hues.

Capes

Capes were everywhere. Elegantly cascading down and adding oomph to the outfits that were on display. A number of designers incorporated some stunning capes in their collection and this trend is here to stay.

Androgynous Clothing

A trend we are all loving was androgynous clothing. We could see women adorning suits, blazers, bandhgalas, sherwanis and so much more. All this which is traditionally considered manly!
