An Autumn-Winter Story in Three Hues
Interior design connoisseurs will tell you the most important ingredient of décor is primarily good taste, aesthetics, lighting to set the mood, and keeping the area uncluttered. Vikram Sharma, the set designer for WIFW Autumn-Winter 2013 has ensured just this as 600 workers work tirelessly to create magnificence at Hall No. 18, Pragati Maidan for Asias biggest event.
WIFW SS 13 – Backgrounder of the Event and the Delights
It takes 700-800 workmen to get the show rolling in a matter of 5 days as they work 24X7 before the curtains rise for the biggest fashion extravaganza—-the Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week Spring-Summer 2012 with 132 runway and stall designers set to showcase their designs from Oct 6-10. As Hall No. 18 at Pragati Maidan gets an elegant makeover the two MSAs will seat up to 1,200 guests (600 each), but it is undoubtedly the décor that pushes the proverbial style envelope.
WIFW SS 13 – Day Two Sum-up
It was a tribute to Bhagalpur silk with Bollywood star Manoj Bajpayee doing the honours by adding oodles of masala, as Samant Chauhan showed his eclectic line complete with floor sweeping silhouettes on the second day of the WIFW at Pragati Maidan. Oranges rubbed shoulders with whites and these beauties came pleated at the bodice or with interesting lowers, with patchwork added in a good measure to rev up the look. As little pearls encrusted yolks and churi sleeves made a fine play, the stunner was the plain black sari with a gotta border that Nethra Raghuraman carried to perfection.
