On the 3rd day of Blenders Pride Punjab International Fashion Week Season 3 saw collections from some of the senior designers coming from the industry. Rose Creations headed by a local fashion designer Sulakshana Monga has become the epitome of classic fashion with such a product line that it makes all wonder who the woman behind the label is. Inspired by a desire to bring out an individual’s deep intrinsic beauty, the finest fabrics and trims are researched and selected, with each garment being constructed by hand… always with a respect for old world craftsmanship and a passion for exoticism. Her collection ‘The Royal Carpet’ has a beautiful bridal essence and an appealing color story bringing the signature style with embroidery amalgamation between contemporary and traditional art. Rose creations showcased 11 Socialites from Ludhiana as their show openers.
Excellent craftsmanship and high attention to detailing define the brand Libas by designer couple’s par excellence Riyaz & Reshma Gangji. Creating impeccably flawless garments with perfect cuts is an art which Riyaz is well versed in. ‘The Truth Collection’ is a wedding couture showcase by the designers. The collection is a depiction of fashion being re-invented in the form of a heritage collection. Leading Punjabi actress Jonita Doda walked the ramp.
Between the idea and reality, between the motion and the act; lie the will to succeed and excel. It is the same that has driven designer duo Mona Lamba and Pali Sachdev. Mona and Pali share a home and a cause: Designing. Hitting the catwalk more than two decades ago, the designer sisters have helped etch India on the international fashion map. This season Monapali presents an eclectic collection as hand crafted embroidered motifs in Kantha offset by block printing come to life in a blend of Indo-western and Indian silhouettes. A riot of vibrant colours comes into play flirting with a mélange of muted hues. ‘Gangs of Wasseypur’s’ original ‘womenia’ –HUMA QUERESHI will be the showstopper of the show.
