Amit GT’s evening-wear collection was filled with satins and crepes, all in vivid, vibrant colors like fuschia, indigo, creams, metallics, often accented with jeweled embellishments, mostly with crystal accents.

Gunjan and Rahul’s collection had many vivid colors, all inspired by fruits and vegetables like papaya, mint etc… The silhouettes stayed easy and free flowing and the color contrasts were muted and subtle. Skinny belts in fabric made an appearance too, giving the garments more form.

Can you smell the roses yet? Varun Bahl’s collection had romantic roses that were presented in all sorts of textures and colors.
Copper tones, taupe, black, and chocolate were the dominant colors of this collection used with silk and velvet material. The jackets and skirts featured some intricate embroidery. The mens collection seemed a little busy with ribbon ties on shirts and jackets.

Zubair Kirman’s collection for his label Bouniman was as wearable as it can get. The color palette was more subdued even though he used colors that border on the metallic in nature. Silk with circles, square and lines were used to create sheath, shift dresses and tunics for the woman.
The men’s collection didn’t include as much color as was used for the women. He stayed with white and greys for the men but included graphics patterns into sherwanis and jackets.

There were goddess prints, mirror work, embroidery, fringes and floral motifs. Ritu Kumar’s collection in one part paid homage to the old world 20s glam, think ‘Gatsby’, and then in the latter part to the Caribbean Islands.
The clothes were often accented by use of mirror-work, embroidery or tonal thread-work. There were kaftans, sheath dresses, contemporary saris, casual day dresses and vibrant floral ones.
The cuts for the most part stayed fit, sharply tailored, more mature and narrow on the wear. The more elaborate floral gowns were more voluminous and vibrant.
