Fashion Week: Anita Dongre & Life in-between shows

- Shamita Singha
Here’s my first look at Fashion Week as promised! I went for the 5:00pm Anita Dongre bridal collection show on Friday pleasantly surprised at how trendy and chic all the clothes were. (I also really liked the starry-eyed make up on the girls, must try that some time!) But I’m guessing you’re probably getting more than enough of that, so here’s a peak at all the lobby action between shows where the models hang, drink wine, smoke cigarettes (and refuse to pose face-first pre-makeup!)

Marc Robinson

(freakishly tall) foreign models

Aki Narula (Binal Trivedi was hiding out to his left "no-make-up-no-photo")

The smokers corner...

...where everyone hangs between shows.
Psst! Anita Dongre’s celebrity front bench consisted of Sanjay Suri (who I twittered about), Urmila Matondkar (looking super slim) and Marc Robinson who’s the choreographer-in-chief for Lakme Fashion Week this September.

Loved the cute tights and kurti look

Simple yet elegant. Two thumbs up!

...and then I got distracted by what looked like blue ruby slippers!

Another (no-make-up-no-photo cat) but eventually we reached this compromise. :)

Yet another thing to mention is that an online business administration program is designed for people to be able to efficiently proceed to bachelor’s degree courses. The 90 credit certification meets the other bachelor education requirements then when you earn the associate of arts in BA online, you will have access to the latest technologies with this field. Some reasons why students want to get their associate degree in business is because they may be interested in the field and want to obtain the general training necessary just before jumping into a bachelor college diploma program. Thanks for the tips you provide in your blog.
