Nitin Bali
Nitin Bal Chauhan chose a weighty theme for Lakme Fashion Week. A collection christened 'I cannot see my content face...Part II', it focuses on Sadism, Pain, Suffering and Anguish. He draws his inspiration from the misery of the world, which he believes does not permit him, as an artist, to showcase happiness and contentment.
Mafia & the Seductress
Abdul Halder's line for Fashion Week explores a unique concept - The Mafia and the Seductress, inspired by the Italian Mafia and particularly the movie The Godfather. A line with outfits for both men and women, the designer showcases clothing for the patriarchal mafia 'Boss', surrounded by the women in his life -- his muse, his seductress and his confidence.
