 A dazzling line of collection by renowned designers like
Rocky S and Vikram Phadnis, who are known for their sense of drama, flamboyance
and panache and whose names are synonymous with style and luxury dazzled the
audience at the Gitanjali Luxury and Lifestyle Fest 2009 at the Turf Club,
Mahalaxmi Race Course on 22nd January, 2009.
The show kick started with
the collection showed by Rocky S, Raima Sen being his show stopper. The
collection had a summer touch in it. It was an eclectic mix of color, texture
and style. Springy fabrics like linens, soft voiles, and cotton blends were
ornamented with shimmer and shine by way of colorful sequin embroidery.
And then the Grande Finale, by Vikram Phadnis, showcasing the Indian
bridal wear. The bridal collection touched the middle ages and brought back the
old Mughal era. Ornate luxurious lehengas kurtas, dupattas, saris, elaborate
sherwanis and Achkans embellished with intricate zardosi, gota and bagh
embroidery, velvet cutwork made each piece exquisite in its contemporary style.
The show started with Katrina Kaif making a lavishing entry in her
Vikram Phadnis’ bridal wear. The crowd went on their feet and could not stop
applauding.
The show finally came to an end by ‘band walas’ blowing
their trumpets and drums on the famous beat of ‘Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jaayenge’
and models taking their final walk of the night. Sameera Reddy and Celina
Jaitley were Vikram’s show stoppers too.
The event was no doubt a big
success with people pounding on each other to get a glimpse of the three show
stoppers.
Indeed a night where glamour met style.
