The Fabulous Day 2 and Day 3 of Lakme Fashion Week Summer Resort 2016

It was yet another special day at Lakme Fashion Week 2016, the runway was full of surprises and much beyond what I had expected. The vibrant collection of Wendell Rodricks, stunning apparels of Gaurang to Debashri Samanta stylish summer prints, Swati and Sunaina’s dazzling ethnic wear and many other fabulous Haute collection by the supreme fashion designers glamorised the runway.

I was flattered by the melange of traditional wear and western wear which had a beautiful appeal of the contemporary look.

It was nice to see the Indian textile and embroidery was being promoted on the runway. Where Mrinalini Gupta, ‘Banaras’ collection had a touch of rustic and dusty hues of belted sari, kaftan, harem pants which had a bohemian look and even blended well with the concept of LYF smartphone.

The rustic look of the collection reflected the Flame smartphone designed by the LYF smartphone. The phone promises a sleek look, amazing camera quality with fabulous battery life, what more do we need?

The surprise element was when we saw the hot, glowing supermodel Carol Gracias on the ramp with her cute baby bump wearing Gaurang Shah’s stunning green and pink sari. Gaurang Shah ‘Calico’ collection was an inspiration of Indian textiles and his collection had a mix of vibrant hues to soft and pleasant shades of gowns, ethereal saris.

We share the stunning collection of every designer who rocked the ramp of Day 2.
