Sashikant Naidu, Asmita Marwa: LFW Summer/Resort 2010
The saris in Sashikant Naidu’s collection were beautiful. Soft, fluid and so feminine. The hand painted motifs in the kalamkari form on the more organic color palette of the line really stood out. The dresses weren’t as impressive as the saris barring a kaftan dress or two but the saris themselves more than made up for it.

Asmita Marwa, Lakme Fashion Week Summer/Resort 2010
After having been blown away by Asmita’s previous collections, especially with her use of Kalamkari and more recently, the Telugu script in the previous collection, this particular one came as a colossal disappointment.
Sure, there were some very wearable separates but the collection got repetitive at one point. Asmita stuck to her signature look of easy flowing organic maxis, jumpsuits and separates but there really was nothing that stood out except for the jackets.
Lots of checks, rose appliques, tie-dye, colors like blues and reds juxtaposed with white made up Asmita Marwa’s boho resort collection titled, “Maya 0° 36’0”S/73° 6’0”E” which left us with a feeling of, “haven’t we seen this before?”.

How gorgeous is that black sari :) Wish the actresses would sport stuff like this for a change instead of the boring Manish Malhotra/Sabyasachi stuff all the time.
I agree 100%!! Ditch Manish Malhotra’s hideous designs!!
Is that mangalsutra/thali(turmeric root in turmeric smeared cotton thread) in their necks in the top row pictures? huh?
hmm…they also have Vratam Thoranam tied to their wrists. What gives?
Btw, good collection of sarees.

I like the green saree, would like to see more of the sarees.
