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.

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.

The designer’s collection titled ‘Timeless’ was classic Wendell Rodricks. The term DeBo is often loosely bandied about but this Goa based designer has it down pat. Clean, fluid lines, masterful draping and clever use of vibrant colors, all very apparent.

There was a buzz around Anushka Khanna’s debut collection and going by some of the designs we saw on the runway, we can see why. Loved the embellished belted sari as well as the long button-front diaphanous shirts. The pants stood out too.

We loved Payal Khandwala’s debut collection and this presentation titled ‘Sadhu and the Samurai’ seemed an extension of it. Present was the same easy, pared down DeBo vibe. What was new however was the overture to a little more emphasis to form and play with drape. Two collections down, the designer has an unmistakable aesthetic and we’d love to see how it evolves with the next presentation.
