NEW DELHI: The fashion week at Pragati Maidan kickstarted with a Bollywood show as master couturier Tarun Tahiliani opened the event with an interesting collection of asymmetrical ensembles in shades of ivory, black, deep emerald and ruby red.
Set against a grand backdrop of circular metallic installations and to the beats of live Rajasthani folk music, the cherry on the icing was actress Shilpa Shetty, who cascaded down the ramp in a multi-hued silk off-shoulder blouse, billowing lehenga skirt and gold choker necklace.
The 38-year-old looked fitter than ever and was later accompanied by upcoming movie Dishkiyaoon stars Harman Baweja, who sported a black suit, and Ayesha Khanna, who looked gorgeous in a black pre-stitched sari.
After she took a bow on stage, actress Alia Bhatt, standing on hot pink towering heels, opened the show for designer friend Masaba Gupta.
With her hair neatly tied in a ponytail, Alia looked stunning in a muslin dress with black and grey horizontal striped sleeves.
Masaba’s collection tells how to wear saris in different ways. Some were teamed up with leggings and a few had plaited pallus. She majorly used cotton.
Actress Kangana Ranaut was unable to move forward smoothly as the showstopper for designer Namrata Joshipura at the grand finale of Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week.
With her curly locks tied up, Kangana made her entry in a strapless floor sweeping black gown with metallic embellishment on the side.
Just after taking a few steps, one could notice her struggling with her gown created by Joshipura. Nevertheless, Kangana gradually walked on the LED lit runway. After stumbling a few times, she slightly lifted her gown up with both hands to avoid herself from falling on the stage.
Despite the mishap, Kangana was in some way delighted to be back on the fashion runway.
“It is nice to be here. Many years after Fashion I am getting to walk on the ramp. I was a fashion disaster in Queen and am a fashion victim in Revolver Rani. I love getting dressed and looking good for a change. I like doing shows,” said the actress, who will be soon seen in Revolver Rani.
And if it’s as chic as Joshipura’s show at the fashion week, anyone would feel honored to be a part of it.
The show had a disc jockey and a drummer playing in coordination and before the models’ entry, a few dancers in reflective suits, which matched the theme of the collection, gave an interesting performance.
