Though we were delayed in posting about this, better now than… 🙂

This shoot styled by Anaita Shroff Adajania for Vogue showcasing the latest and greatest from Indian designers is an instant favorite; it couldn’t have been easy working with so many models and designers/varied designs and yet she’s done an impeccable job! Like the vibrancy of it.

Changing It Up

I am a sucker for traditional designs presented with non-traditional prints which is why I am loving this polka-dot long-kurta on Ms. Balan. Quite an upgrade over the long maxi and a welcome change from anarkalis she gave us. Except, why do I have a feeling we’ll be seeing way more of these on Ms. Balan from now on? 🙂

Coming back to this appearance, you like?

Doing Casual

After Ishita and Sush (see here), we didn’t think anyone else would pick up on strange/puffy blouse let alone Mugdha. Alas, this round of doing casual, we’ll have to give to Giselli for keeping it simple. (We sure would have preferred sandals on Giselli though over those thongs. :P)

Tarun and Malini at Jakarta Fashion Week

Day one of the 2009 Jakarta Fashion week ended with Indian designers Tarun Tahiliani and Malini Ramani showing with Indonesian designers Sebastian Gunawan and Priyo Oktaviano. While most of the time Indian designers show their just-shown collection at other fashion shows, for this event Tarun and Malini created a brand new collection taking inspiration from Indonesian culture and fabrics with the Indonesian designers doing the same from Indian culture.

Both Tarun and Malini stuck to their trademark designs but incorporated the traditional Indonesian fabrics with Tarun opting for the more heavy brocade silks and Malini going with light-weight fabrics like cotton with light embroidery in hers. More than our designers, I was blown away by the Indonesia designer’s collections. The attention to detail and silhouettes were far better. Of the four, I will have to say Malini’s was the one I liked the least. Your thoughts?
