Lakme Fashion Week(LFW) is a Bi-Annual show started back in 1999 with Winter festive show taking place at August and Summer Resort show at July. Gen Next show is a premier fashion event at LFW, Mumbai, Title sponsored by Lakme. In this Article, I’m excited to discuss about aspiring fashion designers of 2017 who want to make big in the fashion industry. Many designers have managed to grow big from here such as Kunal Rawal, Rahul Missra and Masaba Gupta in the previous year. The showcased collections in this 15th season by 5 new designers are creatively captivating. Soumyadeep Dutta’s collection is inspired from “Laal Paar Saada Sari” which is a traditional Bengali white sari with red border. The collection included Bengali draped saris, Long kurta and a handstitched mix of asymmetric tops & dresses. Mostly all were in hues of white, grey, black and red with primary use of Bengal muslin for the attraction of his collection. The designer brought a touch of his hometown Kolkata to his collection with perfectly balancing it with modern outfits. Resham Karmchandani and Sanya Suri, the duo designer showcased their collection under the label “Pot Plant”, initially inspired from the Gender neutrality (Mens wear and Womens wear). Most of the collections were in shades of blue, red and white with using 100% cotton fabrics for fuss free clothing. The collection stole hearts of the spectators with hassle free and comfort driven designs consisting of loose fitted kurtas(coupled with embroidered floral motifs) & dresses. Nakita Singh’s collection is inspired by the technique of sketching (Outline of drawing) and was showcased under the label “Outline”. Mostly fabrics like Khadi and Linen were used for the brilliant prints and embroideries with tropical nature. Ishant Mukherje and Anirudh Chawla, the other emerging designer duo showcasing their collection under the label “Poochki” inspired by the Animal welfare. Poochki is named after the designer duo’s pet cat. The collection consisted of frilled dresses, jumpsuits, playsuits with layer block printed sheer fabric. Prints like soaring birds, panda’s and tortoises set them apart by highlighting the show. The designer interpretation of freedom through his collection with fun & refreshing design is liberating. Pallavi Singh showcased the collection for “Tokyo Delhi” under the label “ARCVSH” by fusing techniques of India and Japan. The collection consisted of Knee-length skirts paired with crop top, long kurtas & jackets making a strong impact with use of Kantha embroidery in the line. The combination of screen printing and hand block printing makes the collection as dynamic.
