It’s almost here and this time, there are so many surprises – it’s making our heads spin! We’re nervous because our work days are about to get a whole lot longer, and excited because it’s the 15th year of Lakmé Fashion Week, and the organisers have some aces up their sleeves this time around. With Sabyasachi opening the show at an unknown location and Anamika Khanna closing it at another unknown historic location (The Gateway Of India?) this season is looking good, and honestly, we can’t wait! Last evening was the curtain raiser and the participants showed us a tiny glimpse of what to expect along with their muses.

Psst, did I mention, Manish Malhotra is all set to showcase on a blue fashion runway (can’t wait to find out who the showstopper will be) and in total, about 84 designers are participating. I know I can expect fashion, but I wonder what it looks like on no sleep – Ready, set, fashion week!
