WLIFW Spring 09: The Round-Up (Part One)

The theme of Anjana Bhargav’s collection was ‘Structured Deconstruction’ and was evident throughout the collection. She played with drapes, cuts, silhouettes, hem-lines… The color palette was too somber for a spring collection (for us anyway) but there were certain pieces with metallic influences that were very well crafted.

Barring a few pieces, this collection wasn’t very memorable.

High-waisted wide-leg pants, very feminine blouses, sharp pencil skirts and grecian dresses made up the collection. The color palette stayed mostly muted with a burst of orange or blue here and there. The more abstract and busy prints weren’t so impressive. And while florals continued to make their presence felt, the duo did use them well!

The separates were well crafted but it is their evening wear that no doubt will end up on many a celebrity in the coming days. Sure, its nothing that we haven’t seen before but perhaps thats where their forte lies, in safe, classic evening wear silhouettes…

The silhouette that Surily showed instantly reminded us of Missoni… We loved the dress on Missoni runway and like Surily’s interpretation of the drape too…! But it is easy to see where she got her ‘inspiration’ from! 😉
