Supermodel Naomi Campbell recently attended an Indian event at Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc. The fashionista looked bespoke in an Indian ensemble designed by Manish Malhotra. The ace designer took to Instagram and shared pictures of the same. He wrote in the caption, "Summer Romance with Lavender ..custom made Beaded Saree beautiful on Iconic @naomi .. special moments at the French Riviera."
It seems like supermodel Naomi Campbell is a fan of Indian sarees. For her Met Gala 2023, she opted for a gown that she draped like a saree. Naomi's ensemble featured luscious pink fabric draped over one shoulder, plus a shimmering silver sequin bodice and matching silver trim. For the glam, she opted for glowy make-up and kept her hair straight. She also added a silver touch to her outfit by wearing a pair of silver heels.
Last year, Naomi welcomed her second child, a baby boy. She announced the birth of her first child in May 2021. Naomi hasn't revealed her newborn's name and also kept her toddler's name private.
Coming to Manish, the designer made headlines after he designed the uniforms for the cabin and cockpit crew of India's leading global airline, Air India. Manish told IANS, "I am honoured to have been allowed to design the uniforms for Air India. It is a privilege to be able to contribute to the national flag-bearer and showcase the elegance and charm of Indian fashion. I aimed to create uniforms that capture the essence of India's diverse culture and traditions while also embodying a modern and sophisticated look. By incorporating quintessential hues that are symbolic of India, I hope that these uniforms not only make the crew feel proud but also leave a lasting impression on the guests, representing the warmth and hospitality that India is known for."
Meanwhile, Manish recently held a fashion show with Ranveer Singh and Kriti Sanon at Varanasi. The theme was 'Banarasi Saree- A tapestry of Indian culture and Craftsmen'. The show was organised by the Indian Minorities Foundation, to promote handicrafts and handlooms of Varanasi. The event was hosted at the Namo Ghat.
