Lakme Fashion Week – Winter/Festive 2017
Projected forms, defined geometry and lineal accents make for a pronounced winter.
Exploring the scope for luxe knitwear, the collection draws heavily from outerwear staples. Sweaters, cloaks, coats and trenches in custom-made flat knits and ribs create abstract and amorphous shapes.
These are balanced by sharply tailored separates in premium suitings, rich silks and sheer organza.
Statement travel-wear to opulent evening pieces offer ample sartorial choices for a non-tropical holiday.
The predominant palette of steel, slate and charcoal is contrasted by a sharp tangerine. A trompe l’oeil print adds texture to the range.
A modern, urban derivation of the traditional baadla-taar embellishment technique highlights the pieces. This is high- prêt with a dramatic flair.
