Anand Bhushan: LFW Summer/Resort 2010


Anand Bhushan was one of the few designers to showcase Fall/Winter 2010 collection during the LFW. And jackets, dresses and coats in chocolate, burgundy and purple dominated the collection.

The silhouettes themselves were simple and basic but it was the construction with it’s embellishments, embroidery and texturing that really stood them apart. Loved the heavy-on-texture, leafy jackets. So much drama. And the pencil skirt. Hot.

The use of bead-work and pleating on dresses sure kept things interesting. Some of these outfits were immensely wearable with loads of visual interest and we really hope to see them off the runway.

Go Green!


A big thank-you to Ms. Scott for restoring my faith in the color again because Ms. Chandra all but scarred me for life with that outfit of hers. So unflattering. And those shoes…!

She was doing so well too… Whatever happened Neetu?

Miss Mess!


Some folks can throw different things on and it somehow works. Not so, in the case of Madhoo, who looked less than pleasing in the blue sequin top, weirdly fit denims, electric blue sandals and brown bag. And if the outfit isn’t bad enough, may we draw your attention to that big-ole zipper?

Changing It Up


Not fond of the sari but Sri makes it work. And as much as she does make it work, it still falls short. Mostly for no fault of hers, it’s the sari.

Too bad the one time she took a break from her ombré saris, the look fell so flat.

Masaba: LFW Summer/Resort 2010

Masaba, Lakme Fashion Week Summer/Resort 2010

Masaba isn’t one to shy away from prints or color and this collection, like her previous one was heavy on both (color and print). The men’s wear and women’s wear that she showed was playful and casual with an interesting mix of prints, colors and textures. We especially liked the hand/palm print in black and white. The jumpsuits with multi fabrics and dresses with hems attached on one shoulder were certainly interesting for the lack of a better word.

Being so reminiscent of her previous collection, all we’ll say is this… it’s great that she’s found her “signature look”, now we hope she just doesn’t fall into a rut.
