Prashansa Daniell

After a stunning round of shows on day 1, day 2 of Amazon India Fashion Week Autumn/Winter ’18 showed us that it wasn’t just about glamorous, ready-to-wear ensembles, but so much more than just that. Designers brought their A-game, with show visuals, music, accessories and clothes too. Check out everything that went down on day 2!

1. Rahul Singh

Rahul Singh kicked off day 2 of Amazon India Fashion Week with his collection that was all about tribal style with a little edge. Each look had a story to tell by itself, whether it was a flared lehenga, a boxy shirt or a stylish jacket. The silhouettes of his clothes were chic and edgy but every garment had details that took us reminded us of traditional craftsmanship.

2. Saaj by Ankita

What first began as a show featuring monochromatic looks with pops of colour, soon took us into a world of eccentric prints with equally eccentric colours and patterns, some hypnotizing even. From pantsuits to statement sweatshirts, Saaj by Ankita wowed us with every garment on the runway. She also incorporated one of the hottest fashion trends rn, i.e the socks on heels trend (Which we tried out too—check it out here!).

Lehengas, saris, dresses, jumpsuits and more—Karishma Deepa Sondhi had a little something for every kind of girl. Whether we’re talking, flirty, fun or fabulous.  Their collection titled, Rasbhari played with colours and fabrics alike to create some statement-worthy looks.Plus, Bipasha Basu gracing the runway with so much elegance was a sight to behold!

4. Kommal & Ratul Sood

It’s true what they say, nothing flatters a man more than a well-tailored suit. Kommal & Ratul Sood showed us that the menswear game can be upped and how. With sharp lines and the detailed tailoring of these menswear garments, they had double-tappin‘ all over these images.

5. Pawan Sachdeva

Two words: Kartik Aaryan. Okay maybe this is going to be more than two words but Pawan Sachdeva has slayed us all with his collection. He took shades of black, white, blue, tan, and grey and added pops of color of red & yellow too. The style of the jackets as well fully bodysuits, keyhole capes etc were ones that we could wear.!

7. Not So Serious by Pallavi Mohan

Not So Serious by Pallavi Mohan’s glamorous ‘Winter Dahlia’ collection stood true to her brand name. It was edgy, vibrant fun and nowhere close to serious. But we’re gonna be biased and say that the best part of the show were the littles who worked the runway with so much cuteness. There was shimmer, there was shine, teamed with faux fur and glamorous, thigh-high boots et all. Definitely not the No So Serious by Pallavi Mohan we were expecting but she has blown us away and how!

8. Vineet Bahl

Reason 2837 we love fashion week? Because designers successfully transport us to another realm, a different era or a different state of mind with their designs. This is Vineet Bahl did to us as we sat front row watching models wear his garments inspired by his travel to Croatia, Romania, and Slovenia amongst others. From checkered coordinates to detailed jumpsuits and more, Vineet Bahl’s AW 18 line had the best of everything for every  kind of girl.

9. Malini Ramani

Lyrca dresses, cape saris, kaftans and more, Malini Ramani had our attention with each outfit she put out on the runway. Colours and textures were simple as well as wearable. We’re definitely going to be adding these to our wardrobe asap!

10. Nikasha

If there was one way to describe Nikasha’s show at AIFW AW ’18, it would have to be—Purely Pretty. Nikasha used our favorite ensembles and embellished ’em with our favorite things. I.e Saris with sequins, dhoti pants and tops with foil work, jackets with floral embroidery. Everything from this collection is perfect for a bride-to-be for a sangeet, mehendi or cocktail party.

12. Nitin BAL Chauhan

Nitin Bal Chauhan set the kind of mood for his AW 18 showcase that was all kinds of touching. With graphics that reminded us of the bombings and acts of terrorism that displaced people, he presented a line depicting his truest emotions. Oversized attires with displaces seams and shifted pockets. Some outfits even looked like life jackets strapped on to convey his message. The cherry on the cake were the various headgear worn by each model that represented different kinds of destruction.

Rina Dhaka

Rina Dhaka’s line encapsulated granny-chic clothing with a touch of glam. We spotted so many textures, mixed perfectly in one outfit-the knits with sheer being our fave. Rhea Chakraborty closed her show, and day 2 of AIFW AW ‘18 in a sparkly silver dress perfect to dance in.
