Wills Fashion Week Autumn/Winter 2011- Snippets

Yet another fashion week has arrived to cool us off this summer! The runways are on fire at the Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week, the bi-annual convergence of the fashion industry. Established designers, models, makeup and hair artists, fashion bloggers, trend analysts, buyers and socialites yet again come together for this 5-day fashion event in Delhi. Here are the highlights (well, actually our favourites!)

Geisha Designs by Paras & Shalini

Romance, poetry, unique, royal, vintage, geometric- are just some of the words that can be used to describe the Geisha Designs label. We loved the use of subtle shades of grey, violet, sea green and lava red as the duo aptly paid tribute to Mother Nature. This collection was brimming with intricacy clearly seen through the use of handcrafted techniques like batik, crochet and appliqué work. Soft flowy dresses; jumpsuits, shift dresses, ruffled neckties and crystal neck pieces flowed lucidly throughout the Geisha Designs show. Very wearable and perfect for those who like to stand out in a crowd, with a generous dose of subtle.

Tarun Tahiliani

Couture king Tarun Tahiliani once again created magic on the ramps with his fantastic eastern-inspired collection. Chinese motifs, delicate paisley, quilted and velvet appliqué work made his collection as gorgeous as always. We absolutely love the sari-draped gowns. Very fiery, yet extremely sensual!

Varun Bahl

The designer known for his silhouettes and fantastic cuts, also caught our attention with his desirous collection, perfect for a winter evening. We love the structured look that was generously seen throughout his show as the models sashayed on and off the ramp in short cropped jackets, circular pleated hemlines, structured dresses (very sophisticated and chic!) and shift dresses. Very edgy, yet very wearable! Stay tuned for more fashion trends and updates from Marry Me\’s Indian Wedding planning team.
