WILLS INDIA FASHION WEEK 2009

SOME SHOWINGS

Rocky S disappoints- with completely unwearable, loud creations... the only saving grace seemed to be that he stuck to sombre colors like blacks,browns, greys and jade. The obsession with high fashion glamour seems obvious what with sequins and studs, feathers and fur adding to the punk rock look. Take a peek.....

























Kiran Uttam Ghosh used rich vintage colors of copper, ink blue, green, brown , blue and magenta
Flowing drapes, Egyptian collars, Kimono jackets, jacket dresses,pleated skirts, churidars, Kaftans, paneled jackets, bias cut gently flared skirts, lantern sleeves, torn and pulled organza ponchos, tunics, capes, shrugs in ikat prints, velvet, organza, silk, georgettes ...kiran lived upto her trademark style of pleasant work once again exhibiting her flair for using colors rather tastefully though one cannot connect with her concept of frugality that she wanted to convey

LAKME INDIA FASHION WEEK 2008 MUMBAI

'An eye for an I' was the theme but in this concept of duality, kiran used a combination of two fabrics together in the same outfit.
An interesting mix of textures were used for the range from Chanderi, silk cotton, tussar, jacquard,tweed georgette satin to linen and brocade. Detailing was subtle with pleats, African embroidery, hand painting, printing, crushing for texturing and quilting.
In a variation of color combinations, with much layering and embellished with prints, shibori, seaweed and parsi floral embroidery, Kolkatta manages to reign- always... with its sensitive play of colors, delicate craftmanship and handwork, intricate detailing and the sensible usage of fabrics.
Kiran comees across as different this time around.
