Lakme Fashion Week is under full way, and where it’s always a star-studded event, you can never undermine the presence of high fashion, couture, and glamour. The organizers and promoters of the show promised an event never seen before and a whole new fashion week experience for their audience. With Jio Garden as the “it” spot for Lakme Fashion Week’s Summer/Resort 2017, renowned designers have added an attractive aura of pizzazz to the week so far.
This years fashion trends seem to hold no bar—everything is fair game. Models are seen sporting various styles like tunics to their ankles and the classic lace-ups with a sari. Lakme Fashion Week has promised inclusivity and an active effort to redefine fashion and put India’s fashion market on the map! Do you think they’re living up to their promise?
