Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week 2011 - Manish Malhotra

Manish Malhotra stuck to his signature anarkalis and sarees but instead of velvet and gota borders, switched to thread embroidery and crotchet/lace borders. The color palette was mainly nudes with some yellow and blush. The thread embroidery was in bright vivid colors and provided a nice visual contrast. The fabric was mainly net with some khadi silk trousers. A light, frothy summer collection! Not sure why it was shown in Autumn/Winter fashion week - Go figure!!

Who do I see wearing this collection? Do I really need to answer this:-)

Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week 2011 - Anita Dogre

I had a tough time downsizing Anita's collection to just nine pieces - everything was gorgeous! Loved how she used Indian textiles with western silhouettes. Black and gold combination never looked this good!

Who do I see wearing this collection? Deepika Padukone and Sarah Jane in the minis. Neha Dhupia in the last outfit, middle row.
