Lakme Fashion Week Spring 2010: Day Two
Rishta By Arjun, Spring Summer 2010, Lakme Fashion Week
Stepping outside the boundaries of ‘season’ was Arjun Saluja’s collection ‘The Melting Architecture’. It started with a dark theme consisting more of structured pieces and ended with more loose flowing outfits. More toned down pieces consisting of the butterfly print and geometric patterns is what I foresee hitting the market.
Nikasha, Spring Summer 2010, Lakme Fashion Week
Nikasha’s collection ‘In Full Bloom’ started off with white to resemble a bud and slowly progressed to colors like pink/coral to reflect a flower in bloom. Intricate floral embroidery marked the simple flowy pieces that consisted of layered tops, wraparound skirts, and capris. While I liked the layered tops, the pink embroidered pieces didn’t leave a lasting impression that would make me go and buy one.
Nachiket Barve, Spring Summer 2010, Lakme Fashion Week
‘Toxic’ was the name of Nachiket Barve’s collection but it was anything but. Inspired by the colors of the dangerous creatures of the wild, Barve offered several dresses with intricate applique details in geometric patterns. The layering of silk with chiffon offered a summery feel but at the same time a formal tone making all the pieces perfect for cocktail hour.
Manish Malhotra, Spring Summer 2010, Lakme Fashion Week
Manish Malhotra presented a Bridal collection instead of Spring/Summer one and while the designs were pretty much the same as seen last season at the A/W show, Manish brightened up the color scheme using more reds instead of beige.

OMG Nachijet Barve’s collection is so wearable..myriad splash of colors and patterns. nice very nice.
I TOO LOVE NACHIJET BARVE’S COLLECTION! FAAAAB
sigh…why is MM still designin’g; I’ve noticed that the collections this year have been a lot better- all except for this dude’s
have to agree with all you .. NB’s collection is most eye catching …
and yes why is MM still considered the most sorted out … strip him of his celebrity friends and he would not last long .. The same tried and tested stuff … the only thing calling out to me is the colours of the first pic .. Blue and musturd ( i think)
love nachiket barve’s collection…absolutely gorgeous colors….drooling over all especially the middle one….
Nachiket Barve’s collection is the best among all the four – gorgeous colour pairing!
looks like seen it before.. but Manish’s collection is better than all others. Barve’s colors are good but designing is not.
LOVED LOVED LOVED nachikets collection.. so fresh and intelligent.. i WANT all the pieces!
definitely the best at this fashion week!
Nikasha’s reminds me of Geishas and cherry blossoms. Has a very Japanese feel to it.
