Bollywood star Amrita Arora looked wild as she walked the ramp, while twirling around several times much to the audience’s pleasure, at designer duo Shane and Falguni Peacock’s show at the Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week (WIFW) Sunday. Moving away from their usual embroidery-laden designs, the Peacocks this time experimented with more of gemmed and jewelled embellishments for their garments.
“Our collection is generally associated with heavy embroidered clothes. But this time we have tried to do something different by embellishing the clothes with a lot of gems, beads and jewels giving the collection a more funky and fun look.
“Also, this time around we have tried to give our line a more western touch,” Shane Peacock told IANS.
While Arora walked in a pink dress, liberally embellished with fur and gemstones, other models sashayed by in a variety of dresses of all lengths and cuts.
With an array of necklines, from the regular V shapes to deep squares, halter necks and asymmetric ones, the collection had full-length dresses with trains, shirt-collared and puff-sleeved dresses, see-through shirts teamed with shorts and off-shoulder tops teamed with capris among others.
The colour palette encompassed bright hues of yellows, pinks, orange, green and mellow shades of grey with sparkling print detailing and a tad bit of leopard prints.
Fabrics used were chiffons, satins, linens, mulls and Lycra. Embellishments included sequin work, crystal work and gemstones and brooches.
“This is the first time I am walking the ramp for Shane and Falguni and I simply love their collection! It’s very colourful, fun and fashionable, and very comfortable as well,” Arora gushed.
“The dress that I am wearing for them today is in my favourite colour-pink. I couldn’t ask for more,” she added.
