Day 7 of FDCI's Hyundai India Couture Week ended with couturier Tarun Tahiliani's presentation, who recently designed outfits for Indian Olympians. But chaos erupted at the venue, here's what happened.?
The show was held at a plush hotel in central Delhi and the main stage area, where the show was presented had limited seating - at least less than the guests invited for the show.?
Rising from this issue many people failed to attend the show on time.?Overheard at the venue, there were almost 300 people, including eminent personalities from the fashion fraternity, waiting outside and barred from attending the show as the rows were filled. Following that, the designer decided to showcase his collection again.?
"I apologise for what I hear a lot of you went through. These things are never planned, we never know, we try to be very careful. But anyway, the good news is everyone has a front row and we are repeating the show," the designer addressed the crowd before starting the show again. The designer also enjoyed the show from the front row with fellow viewers.?
Models present at the show were informed that the entire show would be repeated again and the models would be paid 50% extra of the original payment. Win for everyone!?
The designer's collection was named Otherworldly which blended couture with comfort.?For far too long, Indian fashion has been restricted by the idea that couture implies discomfort.?
Tarun Tahiliani's latest collection is an attempt to remove those constraints, allowing ladies to wear couture while remaining wonderfully comfortable. "We are dedicated to combining technology and tradition to make fantastic, comfortable apparel that fits like a second skin," Tahiliani explains that while beauty is subjective, comfort and fit are not.
The collection includes a range of shapes designed to provide both elegance and comfort. Flowing lehengas in lightweight materials, delicately draped sarees, and structured bodices are designed to flow with the wearer.?
The collection's menswear stands out with its sleek, fitted lines, including beautifully embroidered sherwanis, sophisticated bandhgalas, and clean kurtas.?
The colour palette is dominated by black, creating a stylish and contemporary look.The show included embroidered designs on translucent fabrics juxtaposed against marble jaalis, bridging tradition and modernity.?
Black jaalis with typical Indian arches and ivory asymmetrical jaalis demonstrated the blend of legacy and innovation.
