One of the biggest fashion events of the country, The Amazon India Fashion Week Spring Summer 2016, in association with Maybelline New York, took off yesterday in the capital city New Delhi at NSIC ground. Since the Wills-FDCI separation last year, Amazon India is the new collaborating partner of FDCI, which brings the work of the most prominent designers and fresh talents of the country to one great event. This year too, the event will be showcasing some of the major designers along with the budding designers. The show starting from October 7 will end on October 11. This is going to be one hell of an event and five days of total bliss in the corridors of fashion. And we here at India Fashion Blogger would try our best to keep you updated on the fashion week, with whole story and the lowdown of the event coming up each day of the fashion week.

Raw Mango’s Sanjay Garg inaugurated the Amazon India Fashion Week Spring Summer 2016 in a full swing. It was also his debutant show in Delhi ramp diaries. The designer showcased his collection titled “Mashru” in a rather different way. All the arrangements from the décor to music were very interesting and different from what we generally see at fashion shows.

The designer opted for floral decoration hanging from ceilings, a rectangular ramp instead of long ramp and an unconventional form of music ditching all those clichéd computerized playlists.  Talking of collection, all of his 45 garments were created in fuss free, clean silhouettes. The collection revolved around the fabric Mashru, which he revived in 2011. Collection displayed ready to wear garments in rich hues of pink, blue, red and greens, which is a daring attempt for summers.

Designer’s celebrity fans Soha Ali Khan, Konkona Sen Sharma, Deepti Naval and Mini Mathur attended the show to cheer for the designer.
