As you all know recently Mumbai has just witnessed the Lakme Fashion Week, 2015. It started on 26th of August and ended on 30th August. The five days of fashion showcased the regular who’s who of Indian fashion industry as well as some really talented budding designers. Though I did not get to attend the shows but I made sure to keep an eye on the social media and not to miss anything. Here I am listing up my favourites from the Lakme Fashion Week with loads of pictures. Keep reading-
~LFW, Day 1~
My favourites of Day 1 of the Lakme Fashion Week are-
- ILK by Shikha Goel and Vinita Adhikari- ILK brought some freshness to the ramp with their ‘out of the box’ idea of fashion. From checkered prints to shirt-saree combo to sweatshirt dress, their collection reigned the ramp with individuality.
- Nikhil Thampi– Nikhil Thampi succeeded in wooing the audience as usual with his classy and elegant designs. He described his collection, Alchemy, to be an ‘amalgamation of modern and mythical India’. His clothes had the aspects of two sides of India, one modern and another classics. From bold colours to neutrals, his design was truly appropriate for a new-edge bride. I loved his collection!

- Manish Malhotra- How can I forget mentioning the man himself, Manish Malhotra. His designs always set the stage on fire. He showed some seriously classy dark colours, bold prints and bollywood style sequin work. The men’s collection was totally a pleasure to look at. And yes, the ever-so-hot ‘Kapoor lad’ was the show-stopper!

- Anushree Reddy– Anushree Reddy’s show was full of bridal inspired clothing. From pastels to florals and sequin works, it was a delight to my eyes.

I have been reading different posts on social medias and saw some pictures and it was a delight to my eyes. This is a true example where fantasy met fashion and elegance met excellence. This was a perfect closing for this year’s Lakme Fashion Week. The bold and beautiful, Kareena Kapoor Khan walked the ramp for him.
