Christian Louboutin & Sabyasachi‘s Bater opened Amazon India Couture Week 2015 last night. Old windows, shredded curtains, night lights, smoke and shadows set the mood for a week of couture and high glamour codes. The scene was set as a dark abandoned haveli of sorts and models made up in dark, Gothic makeup glided on the runway in an eerie yet beautifully intriguing way. Here’s what we thought…

It seems like, for this show, Sabyasachi went dark on his mood board. In fact, the choice of colours, the use of trails and cloak heavy silhouettes; they all came together at the end of the show in deep blood red tones. Though the theme seemed dark, it still was a Sabyasachi show in the sense of the romance of the old world with contemporary notes. In fact, with Louboutin heels, all of Sabyasachi regal looks got a pop of red through the soles.
