The third and final and the most breathtaking collection were that of drapes. Exquisite bridal-wear saris with floral motifs and petals as if are marking the onset of the mellow spring season. What was your inspiration for such a lovely collection? “For the first one it was the care a damn kind of Indian girl that exudes power to me. The second personifies the character of the modern Indian woman who has adapted to the western lifestyle, yet is deeply rooted to Indian culture and ethos. The drapes are solely inspired from the cuts and silhouettes of the 16th century Indian empresses, they are my attempt to make a bride’s dream come true”, elaborates Archana tirelessly.At the end of it all, Archana had not one but two show stoppers- Geeta wearing a black deep back blouse under a sliver embellished sari and Mahima Choudhry sporting a short black dress and a Georgio Armani Prive

Armani`s Prive collection at Paris Fashion Week Mused Rajasthan chic but eschewed the region`s traditional bright hues, models instead emerging on the catwalk in slate, cream, and pearl grey. Skirt suits, cocktail dresses, and evening gowns were restrained, their tapered lines embellished with Taj Mahal-meets-Art Deco jewels and minimal draping around cinched waists; coquettish turbans and berets evoked a feel of 1930s glamor.

One of the most preferred and top fashion brands in the country, Kazo has forayed into men’s fashion with the introduction of their new line ‘Kazo Man’ over the fashion show in the capital recently. “There was constant demand from our customers regarding menswear. A lot of research and survey was required to understand the market and then we came up with this line. The idea behind this collection is to make men look younger and trendier and is for someone who wants to make his own style statement” shared Mr. Deepak Aggarwal, Kazo’s Creative director. The collection was a mix of everything from shirts, t-shirts, denims, pants, shorts to accessories like caps, scarves, etc; giving the effect of both muted elegance and extravagant grandeur. The re-assuring multi colour range which revolves around super dark tones like navy blue, asphalts, charcoal, grey, enforces a feeling of stability, quality and durability to the collection. Not only this, rust, mauve, yellow and green work alongside while black fulfills the role of adding graphic effect.

Jerseys like pique; viscose and slubs are refined by prints, studs and are fused with rough shapes and washes in order to retain key characteristics of the collection. Various techniques of mixing yarn dyed fabrics with prints and embroidery in an obsolete way leaves room for both grunge and modern fashion. Present on the launch to unveil this trendy and fashionable line were the winners of MTV’s reality show ‘Roadies’ and ‘Splitsvilla’- Nauman Sait, Siddharth and Sakshi who were giving their best poses in Kazo’s latest collection. “The main asset of this brand is that it is highly affordable, giving everyone a chance to feel great in their body and skin. I am following this brand from very long and really like their trendy style of designing” said Sakshi. Nauman was quick to add “The garments designed for men are really fabulous with high wearability and practicality quotient. Fashion Models Bulletin

Digital Models Photos Portrait Artists

stylekandy — Sat, 24 Apr 2010 10:24:43 +0000

You must have heard of artists doing live paintings but I am sure you hardly have clue about live digital photo portrait artists. That’s because they are the rare species. Nicolas Richard Giacobetti (NRG) is the man who makes your portrait alive. Tell him your requirement and he will capture the same in a LCD frame. If you are wondering how it’s done then let me tell you he doesn’t have a magic wand but magical hands. The Frenchman actually woke up with this concept two years back and thought of creating an exclusive way to make photos alive. The advantage of this art form is you can pass on these portraits to the next generation by preserving it in a gold foiled CD. Okay! Before you lose your patience I should just explain you the technique Nicolas uses. Taking a picture with a digitally enhanced camera might sound simple to you; however, giving motion to the image is actually a task. It’s a minimum 30 hours job for Nicolas to immortalize one basic human portrait on the digital media. It could be more time consuming if the client requires more animation effects. You can just see yourself changing with epoch on a digital screen which might cost you at least $10,000 and above.

The inception of his artworks got inspiration from Pablo Picasso, not the cubism effect but the blue colour. The artist loves to play with surreal effects in a more contemporary way. Apparently brush and colours are the ancient ways of immortalizing memories and will remain for many light years. However, these portraits in windows media player formats are interesting and long lasting too. “When the whole Universe is going digital, there is no harm in exploring digital media for paintings as well. I always wanted to create an exclusive technique of including movement in the paintings just to make them alive. My art works truly depict the concept and themes showing the movement of eras. The fascinating point about my creations is that it has the effect of an art work with an LCD frame enhancing the beauty of your walls”, said Nicolas. Women would love to know the fact that the artist believes in more of women power and the aura God that has given to this sex. All his concepts revolve around women showing the duel nature of feminity. The artist, who came to India for Luxurion World 2009 (apparently called off due to H1N1 effect in the city), is now trying to promote this exclusive form of art amongst Indian Maharajas and celebrities.

It is probably the most promising of the new born babies of fashion. Come September, Kolkata gets ready once again to witness another week of unparalleled fashion fiesta. In a media briefing held recently in the city, the five day fashion extravaganza, Kolkata Fashion Week was announced to be held from 9th – 13th September, 2009. “The second season of Kolkata Fashion Week will be in a much bigger canvas. This time KFW II will be a five-day event with 36 shows”, announced Yudhajit Dutta, Managing Director, Mindscapes Maestros Events and Sports Management Pvt Ltd. Ritu Kumar, Bibi Russel, Manish Malhotra, Wendell Rodricks, Rocky S, Narendra Kumar, MonaPali, Dev R Nil, Zubair Kirmani, Kallol Dutta, Soumitra Mondal, Abhishek Dutta, Satya Paul, Mandira Wirk and Anand Kabra have already confirmed participation at the year’s most eagerly awaited fashion event. Top models of the country including Indrani Dasgupta, Sapna Kumar, Joey Matthews, Lakshmi Rana, Noyanika, Sonalika Sahai, Neha Kapur, Bhawana, and Candice Pinto along with others will be sashaying down the ramp showcasing the unique creations of these designers. When he is not hitting boundaries and stumping wickets, Indian cricket captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni is busy promoting KFW- “Kolkata Fashion Week has changed the nation’s perspective towards Kolkata as a fashion conscious city” said the brand ambassador.

Media V/S Fashion Trial

stylekandy — Sat, 24 Apr 2010 10:22:53 +0000

Many feel that after Cricket and Bollywood, Fashion is the third largest content driver in the country today. You may choose your preferences here and play a quick rating game, yet it would all hardly matter if the Press would show no interest in covering any of this. People often complain that media today is about ‘sensationalism’ and not ‘journalism’. Perhaps it’s an accusation that finds us more guilty than innocent. But then we are simply reporting the fast multiplying fashion weeks and the earth shattering splits! Let’s just hold an out of court Media v/s Fashion trial and try to reach verdict. Lakme fashion week the most common peeve of designers, especially the younger ones, is that the media gives a runway show its due only when there is a celeb show stopper. “There was a time when I had left concentrating on my collection to run from pillar to post in order to find a celeb because the PR agency warned me that I would not be covered only if I have some biggie walking the ramp” cries designer Rahul Mishra. Even a veteran like Neeta Lulla complained that her ‘eco friendly’ bamboo shoot collection went unnoticed for want of a showstopper as against the collection where Sushmita Sentook to the ramp.

The answer is pretty simple- the average Indian is not yet as fashion conscious as a serious viewer in the West. To grab his attention, we have to infuse some ‘masala’, after all the media has bills to pay too. The solution lies in intelligently positioning one’s collection so that it intrigues the media as well the viewer enough to drive the message home. It doesn’t obviously matter to a Stylekandy. Comsince we cover fashion as a segment and not as lip sympathy! Another incorrigible complaint is that people reporting fashion are not well equipped with the correct savior faire. Again, this may be too much of a generalization. There are serious media reporters who do it for a passion as much as for a living. I believe the organizers of fashion weeks can also play a major role in filtering the ‘wanted’ from the ‘surplus’. Fashion may still be in a nascent stage here, but people itching around the Parliament all day to get a glimpse of the PM should not be allowed at a fashion week only for building relations by public offerings of sponsored food and booze!

The means of self grooming and procuring professional grounding in fashion are far better reaching than ever before. And if one still chooses to remain ignorant, it’s only prudent on our part to part with him. Nari a stalwart in the design fraternity, was disappointed because, “no one noticed or reported that the show had a structured silhouette juxtaposed with a flowy one.” This is not acceptable. Any amount of Sufi mumbo-jumbo will do no good if one can’t report what he can see… or furthermore, can’t even notice what is shown! Models in the industry feel that they are constantly put under the microscope and the media is ruthless and relentless in their pursuit to pin them down at the sight of the slightest mishap. Here, I am sorry to say, but I hardly identify with them. It’s like you spend half your life trying to get famous and then waste the other half complaining about the perks that come with it. As a model, one is expected to remain sartorially perfect at all times, and even an iota of sub-standard attribute will draw unwanted attention. Yes, media should give them a break every now and then. I have to mention what Shahid Kapooronce said to me, “how would you like it if people followed you in the bath room?” I said, “I wouldn’t like it since they don’t want to see me naked. They want to see you!”

Show of Wills Lifestyle

stylekandy — Mon, 19 Apr 2010 12:32:52 +0000

It was the most awaited show of Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week, and boy it did make us wait the most? At 11:00 p.m; when the show finally began, it had been through security lapses, air conditioning failure, a flood of gate crashers and an irate Rohit Bal who frantically tried to get his special guests into the show, while desperately trying to filter the uninvited ones. Inside the MSA, the din was pandemonium-ic and restless, media having had to wait for over an hour in their seats amongst a flurry of lotuses- on the ramp, off the ramp, inside the ramp, beside the ramp and behind the ramp! When Laxmi Rana opened the show, the roar could have put the Lions of Tsavo to shame but it was purely due to the anticipation and relief, not exhilaration or extolling. As for the clothes, it was the copulation of lotuses once again anarkal is v/s jodhpur is both caught in a perpetual duel trying to bag more of the coveted flower that appeared and re-appeared till it established itself as the only motif! White and Gold formed the moot palette, occasional deep stone colours like burgundy, coral red and rust orange made their presence felt on typically layered silhouettes that Gudda is known for. Whirling dervishes of Turkey and Origami of Japan continued to find representation in his clothes. Muzzamil Ibrahim performed a mini striptease, revealing his ripped 6 packs, much to the delight of the female audience. Then it was one Bahl for another Bal! Designer and close friend Varun Bahl repaid the favour of Rohit relinquishing his drink to watch the former’s show two days back, by walking for him. Incidentally, Manish Malhotra was slated to walk too, but he got busy with the filmier things of his life in Dubai! Cousin Aarti Suredranath also made an entry in an embellished lehenga, heavy enough to make turning and walking back quite an ordeal for the lady! Just when everyone expected Lady Katrina Kaif to walk out with Prince Charming Ranbir Kapoor – The Prince Group performed a breathtaking gig for over fifteen minutes, depicting parts of the Gita through dance forms. It was enthralling, but could have been more strategically placed at the start of the show. Katty in a blingy, layered, short dress and Kapoor in a beige sherwani and churidar brought the house down! Rohit danced his typical moves and bowed with a Namaste to bring the fourteenth edition of Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week to a fitting end.

Designer duo Lecoanet Hemant’chose to show their A/W line at the WLIFW s/s10 in style! They captivated the audience with their thematic show as LH presented a in season collection with foot tapping scores and ground breaking choreography with an equal punch of drama thrown in for a good measure. Besides the collection, the runway covered with military print was seemingly in synch with the inspiration. In the first sequence, riveted jackets, tapered pants riveted on both the sides and fur tops in the palette of beige, burnt orange, brown and black ruled the runway. Doing away with the norm of having the perfect models, the designers brought back yesteryear’s beauty Simar Duggal to open their western wear line. Book writer Ira Trivedi and model Tejaswani also walked for the designer duo.
Audiences were surprised when a middle aged man appeared on the ramp wearing a grey suit and was suddenly accosted by a bulky teenager, starting a freaking fight between the two, which is when one figured out that the next sequence is all about the conflicts between a father and his son!!

This sequence saw an example of perfect tailoring with a structured edgy collection. Ultimately the last sequence came presenting the concept of unconventional happy couples. The line comprised of dresses and gowns for women and mostly suits and overcoats for men. Military caps and stoles and grunge hair added on to the fabulous styling of the garments.

The last story was all about unconventional couples. This is where quite a few non-models walked the ramp. Trench coats with overlapping lapels in muted shades ruled for men while for women it was the more classy dresses with mannish detailing. This was the only show where people of all age group walked the ramp presenting different strata of society with versatile concept. The front row was overflowing with buyers, designer and the biggies of WIFW. It all surged to another level with a post show party in a sponsor lounge at the venue.

Reincarnating the Sari Fashion Dresses

stylekandy — Fri, 04 Dec 2009 10:07:37 +0000

Gisele Bundchen loves the Indian sari even the Pussycat Dolls choose to go with this definite Indian flavour to the red carpet at the annual Fashion Rocks concert in New York. The sari has now fast becoming a substitute for the Little Black Dress and amazing gowns. The six yard elegance which is considered to be an Indian woman’s greatest asset has witnessed a drastic makeover since its inception. From contemporary to classic designer to embroidered machine to handmade sari has become one of the most versatile garments in the world. In modern times many a known designers have changed the look of a sari restricting it not just to a 5 1/2mt drape but making it as prettier as ever.

Designers like Tarun Tahiliani and Nida Mahmood show cased the sari in new avatars at the recent Wills India Fashion Week. The sari according to them can be worn over a pair of jeans or jazzed up with a sexy slim belt for a trendy look. What’s more young girls really liked these innovative styles. The designers have amazingly used Belts emphasizing on the waist adding more sexiness style and youthfulness to the entire personality. This idea of wearing saris over jeans is the interpretation of wearing a sari in a trendy manner. This is a trend that youngsters can follow for any casual party. It looks very chic and innovative especially if you are carrying the outfit with the right kind of accessories and look. Swarovski clad saris are also one of the recent trend setters as we have seen several designers using it on the runway.

Satya Paul the designer who is known for experimenting beautifully with this 6 feet drapes in 2007 showed a line of saris the Trouser Sari a pre- pleated sari with a trouser underneath. Since then designers like Anamika Khanna Sabyasachi Wendell Rod ricks Meera and Muzaffar Ali and Ravi Bajaj have all done their interpretations of sari. Sometimes edgy and trendy and sometimes easy- to- wear and comfortable the sari has transformed into many new avatars. Anamika Khanna in her Sari Spring Summer 2010 invented sari pyjamas where she used crushed muslin fabric combining the sari drape with casual pyjamas which filled in for petticoats. The sari is pleated around the right leg with a knotted pallu thrown casually over the shoulder. Next comes Sabyasachi whose chhotu saris or cropped saris as a part of his Fall-Winter 2009 collection were the ones that ended just before the ankle. The sari does not need to be pleated as it has ruches in the front and was totally dedicated to those who were weak in draping.

Menswear designer Ravi Bajaj at one of his shows in Los Angeles showcased Poncho Saris in 2009. There he made this six yard wonder more user-friendly by mixing it with traditional Japanese design. The sari which was made has a pleated skirt a neckline in the pallu which goes through the head and falls back over the shoulder giving it an effect of a poncho gown cum sari. Jai-Parvesh and Hemant-Nandita the designer duos swear by pre-pleated and lehenga saris which are easy to wear and carry at the same time. While pre-pleated saris are like skirts with pleats stitched on to them lehenga saris have a flowing silhouette below and has a heavy pallu replacing a well-draped dupatta on the left shoulder. On the international ramp the sari got its first push towards stardom when Valentino designed a sari dress for Jackie O way back in the 50s. Back in the ’80s Zandra Rhodes the British fashion house took the sari and put zippers on it and combined it with a Victorian crinoline skirt. In another design she cut holes in the pallu for the arms to go through and the sari was draped over the head like a veil. In 2008, Jean Paul Gaultier designing for Hermes showed a line of sari dresses in his spring summer collection which was greatly appreciated by the Western market followed by a spring- summer line for Etro who showcased sari overalls or one piece jumpsuits with the sari drape. Freida Pinto who chose to wear a blue John Gallianosari-inspired gown with exquisite net detailing or Tina Fey hosting the show in a silver gown whose drapes took off from the Indian garment. So whether it is Jumpsuit kimono or poncho sari these classic six- yards drape is getting a twist that you can love or hate but can not ignore.

Luxury & Style Beauty Collection

stylekandy — Thu, 03 Dec 2009 11:07:29 +0000

The rare combination of beauty with brains, the gorgeous designer has taken Indian fashion to a different label. Her foray into French fashion has won many accolades has added yet another first to her credentials by becoming the first Indian designer to be invited to participate at the much awaited fashion soiree, The Debutant Ball held annually at Paris. Find the designer herself in conversation with Stylekandy.com, Even when not showing elsewhere, why did you show at the Gitanjali Luxury Style fest in Dec 08 in Mumbai, almost a year before WIFW. Yeah…I did it, I felt that I should go ahead with it and hence just did it. No strategies involved the day and time suited me and so did it. Your show at WIFW was like a comeback show for you, what preparations did you have to make it grand. I will never call my show at WIFW as my comeback show because I never disappeared from the Indian fashion industry. I have no clues why everyone is naming it as my comeback show? Since my collection was inspiring and loads of hard work has gone in it, so over all the show was well presented and by God’s grace it was a success. Bollywood incursion is often frivolous, how do you justify Abhay Deol walking the ramp with you? He was not my show stopper.

He walked because he is a good friend. But there really is no one like Abhay – he is so cool, so himself, totally relaxed, adventurous, young and presents a modern India. There’s no one better I could have brought. With the height and body that you are blessed with, why do not you consider modelling your own clothes. Never ever did that thought cross my mind…I always wanted to be the creator and may be not the presenter. My inclination was more towards designing so…and now, it’s too late. What was the thought behind the launch of Beri Baby collection? After my daughter’s birth, I realized that in India kids wear is only constrained to ready-to-wear, so thought of coming out with a line of occasional wear dresses for the toddlers. You were the first Asian designer to head the French fashion brand, Scherrer and now again you are the first Indian designer to represent India at The Debutant ball, Le Ball held annually at Paris. How was the journey like.

My journey can be defined as exciting with loads of hard work. It’s not like I had a smooth path of success, even I saw those bad days which everyone tastes during their journey of life. I went through testing periods…but since I really wanted to make it big and grand so made it. My work has always been appreciated in Paris, already retailing through couple of stores there…so may be that why they chose me this year to be a part of Le Ball. Why did you choose Kashmiri princess, Adishree Singh to represent the gown designed by you at Le Ball. For more information Beauty Tips and beauty related product, Hair Color Tips for Hair Color Tips and fashion deals online you can visit stylekandy.com

My work always aims at presenting the Indian sensibility with a tint of modernity and urbaneness. I will be representing India and will make her look modern with some Indian touch. The sole focus is to retain modernity but still showcasing the real Indian fashion. Adishree will be presenting India in all its glory wearing a dramatic skirt and blouse. What is the design philosophy that you maintain while design? Fashion is eternal. The roots of fashion go deep into the yester years. Fashion can never be projected by restricting it to clothes. instead it should go beyond clothes to beauty, hair, footwear and other accessories. It reflects our personality, hence should be very comfortable and what you believe in. How would you describe the growth of the Indian fashion industry in the past decade.

Today, the Indian fashion industry has undergone a metamorphosis. People within and outside the fashion industry has started taking it as a serious profession. It has grown on a large scale and has achieved its recognition on the global platform too earlier India hardly had any fashion schools, but today parents are also eyeing this as a respected professional and hence encouraging their kids. The fashion bodies are also playing a great role, promoting emerging talents is a great task and on top of it, maintaining a consistency is also very pivotal. Do you think that the Indian fashion industry cannot work according to the 6 months projection time unlike the global fashion world? Indian fashion is specific to India and its seasonal cycles. We have a long summer and a very small period of winters…so definitely, six month projection does not work that well with the Indian fashion industry. Future plans? For the time being it’s only Le Ball at Paris, rest you will get to know about as things will start coming up.

Amanda is one celebrity who has carried this off really well.

Jennifer Anistons look is also referred by the fashionist as for inspiration. We love her cheery beach-worthy look completed perfectly with a French braid to hold the front of her hair back. Her makeup always complements her very dewy skin peachy-pink cheeks and light pink lips. Closer home Bipasha Basu and Priyanka Chopra are some of the hot favourites when it comes to setting the trends.

Makeup is simple sheer and age-appropriate and hair style is classic funky and sophisticated completing the entire look. Now that you enough options to choose from, here a word of caution while getting inspired is cool copying it will make you look like a fool.
