In Full Bloom by Nikasha at the LFW

Last updated on: September 19, 2009 
Designer Nikasha Tawadey's spring/summer line, titled In Full Bloom, showcased on the second day of Lakme Fashion Week. The collection, symbolic of a bud moving to a flower, started off with light pastels and graduated to a bright coral. Check it out.

The collection commenced with a pair of dhoti pants and loose-flowing blouse sailing down the ramp in peach and twilight mauve.

Emulating the previous ensemble with a slight twist on the pale tone is another pair of pants and cowl-necked blouse, topped off with a scarf. The colourful blooms in the model's hair go well with the outfit.

Hint of shine

Creamish-grey is complimented by a hint of shine thanks to those lurex capris. The light embroidery and asymmetrical nature of the blouse are very feminine.

Going with the flow
