You’ll remember Nachiket’s winter/festive collection was full of beautiful dresses in vibrant colors. If you don’t, click here for a refresher.
Having seen all those bright numbers on the runway, I can’t help but feel letdown by Mansi for picking this dull dress for herself. It’s so blah!

Shantanu & Nikhil introduced their new label S&N Drape at Lakme Fashion Week and while an animal print wasn’t presented on the runway, the duo created one for Sophie (per her tweet).
As we’ve come to see over the years, Sophie’s style mantra is to keep it simple and fuss-free and she did so again pairing the dress with a black Bottega Veneta knot clutch and gold/black slingbacks.
As always, she looks great but don’t you think the print is very Cavalli-esque.

Sonali gave us two colorblocked looks on day 3 of Lakme Fashion Week. Earlier in the evening, she was spotted in a strapless black/white Siddartha Tytler dress paired with a black Bottega Veneta knot clutch and Choo sandals.
For the last show of the evening (Shantanu-Nikhil’s), she quickly changed into a Shantanu-Nikhil one pairing the dress with a python McQueen skull clutch and beige pumps.
Which color blocked look do you prefer?

It feels like Mr. Malhotra heard all of us because for his Resort collection, he really dialed down the bling factor. Having adopted 45 girls from the Mijwan village for their craftsmanship in chikankari work, Manish used their handiwork in his latest collection which besides chikankari also employed kashmiri embroidery too.
The show started with menswear that showcased simple embroidered kurtas paired with slim trousers and jodhpur pants.

It’s been a while since we’ve felt excited about a Manish collection but this latest one just changed that. I applaud him for taking a step back and integrating a lot more of traditional work into his designs. It goes a long way in reviving the old arts.

Minissha took in Rajat Tangri‘s show wearing a dress that also seemed like it was from the latest collection. On most occasions, the looks that she gives us feel lackluster but I can’t fault anything with this one.
Girlfriend looks good!
