Having worked with floral-prints very successfully in the past (Autumn/Winter 2011, Spring 2012), expectations were high from Hemant and Nandita. Titled ‘Kaleidology’, the collection saw extensive use of abstract floral prints.
If you’ve read this blog long enough, you know am a sucker for a good print. And while for the most part they were visually appealing (and some looks did stand out), the presentation tended to get repetitive. It was a little too one note for me.

Joy Mitra presented a collection that drew inspiration from the colonial India while attempting to give traditional garments a more contemporary twist. I can’t quite honestly say the collection made much of an impression. A lot of the traditional looks seemed like rehashed (and badly executed) Anand Kabra and/or Anamika Khanna designs.

While Mana and Juhi went with pink and gold, Farah picked an anarkali that was off-white and gold with just a pop of pink. Whose look are you digging the most?

One to almost always wear short numbers, Bipasha surprised us by picking a strapless white gown at the Bachchan bash. She looked radiant.
P.S. We think the gown might be an Armaan.
