Day 02 #AIFWAW17

The day 02 at #AIFWAW rocked with amazing tribal show of Peru. It started with Samant Chahan show, in continuation of Huemn.

The HUEMN AW17 collection is a tribute to the individual. To having a voice and wielding it fearlessly. To speaking up and stepping forward. It celebrates the feral confidence of today’s influencers. It recognises the Alpha- the leader of the pack.

The collection celebrates diversity and inclusion and HUEMN man/ woman is an individual in their own right.

The collection is heavily influenced by the socio-economic and political ambience of our times which is far from ideal.

Next show was Hemant & Nandita

A soft power, a blunt edge, femininity with the strength it beholds- Hemant and Nandita’s Autumn Winter Collection is about the two opposite energies making a perfect fit. The stronger silhouettes of long jackets and coats would reveal the dresses in pastel warm hues.

After the amazing show of Hemant & Nandita, the beautiful designer Anupamaa showcased her sacred forest collections.

This collection is set against a forest. The sacred forest of Mangar village. Legend has it that the spirit of a mystic , Baba Gudariya is all over the forest. Baba Gudariya entered a cave to meditate and received enlightenment there. No villager will ever cut or fell down a tree in Manger. As a result this magical forest is home to several species extinct elsewhere like the beautiful Dhau tree. The

forest also houses wildlife like leopards, civets, deer , rich bird life and at least 90 species of butterflies.

Pankaj & Nidhi AW17 leaves no grey area in it’s direction. This is a collection in a sharp monochromatic palette of black & white ensembles. Classics are updated by introducing geometry in the cut to create square cape tops and volume jackets.

After Pankaj & Nidhi, Vaani Kapoor rocked the ramp for Rina Dhaka show-

Day 02 #AIFWAW17 wrapped up with the mind blowing Pero show –
