Grand finale of the Fashion Week started fashionably over an hour late. Vikram Chatwal, Anaita Adajania, Manisha Koirala, Sonam Kapoor, Manish Malhotra, Rohit BaL, Anupama Verma and Aditi Gowitriker were among the celebrity guests.
We spoke to our source that was present in the show,
“The set was covered all white with bells decorated with red roses. The sound of the bells was amazing and gave the cooling atmosphere of an Indian wedding feel.
The reason for that was The Fall Winter Lakme Fashion Week 2009 Bridal Sutra collection by Anamika Khanna which was wonderful and correct for the Indian bride. The makeup done with products from the Bridal Sutra collection comprised soft lips, a red bindi and winged black and gold eye liner. The hair was left loose and crimped. The brides had a very Bengali look that suited all their outfits.”
Further our source told us, ”It was refreshing not to see any bright colors. The collection comprised sarees, lehengas, and gowns with an Indian edge, ghaghras, chunnis, cholis, patialas, and dhoti pants. Aanchal Kumar walked the ramp with the faces of Lakme: Indrani Dasgupta, Amrit Maghera and Vipasha Agrawal. Anu Ahuja put up a splendid show.”
In spite of recession the show was successful.
