Silhouettes that were a hit during the Fashion Week

During the current fashion month in Mumbai, contemporary show-goers hopped from one show to the other dazzling in their favourite designer’s ensembles, advocating everything they labelled as fresh and upcoming. From tried and true closet classics to more captivating trend-forward elements of designing pret-a-porter. At the core of each look, however, was a piece of seriously strong spring wear. Think of tube tops and dhoti skirts with long jackets sprinkled throughout the recent fashion week.



From new talent to mainstream designers, counted silhouettes and styles of collections were flaunted on the runway. Seasons special edition is as usual missing from our fashion week chart. Every designer has their techniques and embroidery to imprint collections, resembling what they create previously with few selected styles being on repeat. oversized umbrella pants with capes, ready-made sarees or even when we go to see every collection with its choice of velvet gleaming out all over this season. Seasons aesthetics are missing out at the same time making the most off-duty moments in oversized jackets on denim or oversized linen suits with sneakers seen almost on everybody.

 


According to a recent fashion line-up for no specific season, few styles and silhouettes got on repeat with each collection and fashion lovers are far from done with it. In India, festive seasons and wedding seasons get more important than the fall/winter or spring/summer.

These are the commonly designed silhouettes we spotted during the most recent showings.

Antar Agni is one of the most promising gender-fluid fashion labels, mostly focusing on the asymmetry of patterns. His collections are highly influenced by Asian styles and
silhouettes with sustainable fabrics focusing more on comfortable clothing. The collection Disquite was conceptualized in a moment of freefall, grappling to understand the change in current times. Ceramic jewellery and its signature pleats, and drapes infused with organic surface bring the symphony of chaos and calm ultimately resembling a lot with Asian silhouettes being the core inspiration.
