Presenting a festive collection, one of the few we’ve seen so far was Krishna Mehta with her “Encore” collection. Targeting the wedding season, the collection heavily focused on saris and lehengas. Floral rose embroidery was dominant in most looks that came in shades of peach and some purple and black.

Nimish Shah’s Shift has long been on our radar now for the label’s wearable separates that don’t scrimp on style for utility. So many looks from this collection would be perfectly at home in our closets! We are sure to have a sighting or two from this presentation off-the-runway.

Anita Dongre closed out day three of LFW with a collection titled “Urban Goddess” consisting of indo-western silhouettes using traditional weaves and ikat prints. While her Resort collection had more flared dress, this collection was more into a fitted look with pencil skirts and cigarette pants with the occasional maxis that have become a trademark. We’re sure to see the collection off the runway soon. It’s just a question of when.
Like Pernia, Anita also presented her only traditional look via her showstopper Preeti Desai wearing a white and gold lehenga.

There was a lot to take in with Priyadarshini Rao’s latest presentation. Considering her previous showings, this relatively glitzy showing sure came as a surprise. And not all surprises are of the pleasant kind. The vast line-up felt a wee bit repetitive after a point and while there were many looks that stood out, they almost felt over-crowded to really be memorable.

It was a burst of rich colors at the Gaurang show, the collection which was titled ‘Ardhagini’. Salwar suits, saris and lehengas presented in a colorblocked scheme sure made an impression with us. Showstopper Kirron Kher chose to pick a more demure sari to walk down the runway, which we thought was quite appropo.
