North east in the centre
The ongoing fashion week in the city is known for bringing glam at every show where the Bollywood set almost always hijacks the attention. But a show on day two featuring six designers from six states of the Northeast saw a surprise showstopper. Former captain of the Indian football team Bhaichung Bhutia walked the ramp for designer Karma Sonam from his home state Sikkim. The footballer looked dapper in a contemporary outfit made using the Lepcha weaves from Sikkim. Leading all the designers and models to take the final bow were the upbeat Tetseo Sisters (above) from Nagaland, who looked as good as any of the models on the ramp. All in all, it was a well deserved showcase of talent from the north east.
