Cricketer Brett Lee and Shweta Bachchan Nanda walked the ramp for
Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla
Actress Dimple Kapadia with daughter Rinki Khanna, Hrithik's better half Suzanne, Maharani Padmani of Jaipur, society headliners Deepti Salgaonkar, Priya Paul and Kalyani Chawla of Christian Dior. With such a mad rush for front row honour, should we blame Delhi socialite Tanisha Mohan for squeezing herself on reserved-for-media seats? While beauty Czarina Shahnaz Hussain was seen moving from one row to another for a seat.
The idea behind the show, perhaps to match their themeu00a0-- Almost 24u00a0-- had young men wearing nothing but sequin briefs, performing gymnastics on the runway, while female models snaked around them. It was an annoying if not unnecessary distraction that took away from the spirit of a well put together show. Did we forget to mention, entertaining?
Abu and Sandeep really know how to grab eyeballs, with their clothes. Each outfit bore a strong impression ofu00a0 Mumbai's veteran designers' impeccable tailoring and eye to surprise with whites moving to pop colours and matt golds and silveru00a0-- at once.
Chikankari, mirrorwork, Gota, sequinwork, applique, embroideryu00a0-- all came together to cast a spell on the shapes of garments that varied from saris, tunics, lahengas, sheer bodices, long jackets and kaftans to dresses.
The chosen showstoppers? Australian cricketer Bret Lee and family friend Shweta Bachchan Nanda, walked in with the designer duo. But the text message had already robbed our chance to be surprised.
