In Manish Malhotra

We expected a big Bollywood turnout but turns out it wasn’t to be. Front row had Urmila and Raveena in attendance who were dressed in Manish’s latest collection.

Loved the color on Raveena but Urmila’s was a bit too much of a mish-mash. We love a good mix of prints and textures but on Urmila it just didn’t work.

Also in attendance was Farah Khan Ali, Celina Jaitley and Dino Morea (which the video shows).

We really enjoyed this collection of Nachiket’s. The collection was quintessentially “him” with all of his signature design elements in place and yet we have to mention how much more fresher and ‘sexier’ it was.

Absolutely loved the ‘laser-cut’ jackets and shrugs that were so structured and feminine. Can’t wait to see the red dress with the shoulder accent on someone soon.

Marchesa (2nd look), Balmain (3rd look), Bottega Veneta (4th look) and prom is what we drew from Riyaz by Riyaz Gangji’s latest collection which consisted of gowns predominantly in white. Pooja Bedi was the showstopper who wore a cream creation and while she herself looked great, the gown was anything but. Too prom-like.

Taking a huge departure from her usual aesthetic of flowy maxis, the resort collection of Babita Malkani consisted of fitted dresses and rompers in durri style weaves inspired by Bhutan. We were quite surprised because going in we expected to see another collection of maxis and kaftans in a mish-mash of prints and if you have been following us on Twitter, you know we loved it already.

From LIFW: Digvijay Singh for Bhusattva

We really enjoyed Digvijay’s collection especially since it followed Abdul’s. The simplicity of his clothes really stood out. Really enjoyed the cottons, textured sleeves, angrakha-style tops and interesting hemlines.

P.S. It was funny how the crowd seemingly came alive once Vivek took to the runway.
