Lakme Fashion Week, Winter Festive 2010 - Anita Dogre

Anita Dongre’s collection at the Lakmé Fashion Week Winter/Festive 2010 show was called “A Tale of Two Cities” and consisted of two distinct collections from designer.

In her prêt INTERPRET line, she presented dresses aimed at the jet-setting women on the go. The dresses were subdivided into two different color schemes. One was a monochromatic look in colors like red, green, blue and black. All these dresses were bodycon with lots of draping.
In the other, she used cotton fabric with traditional hand block prints in earth tones. Again bodycon dresses, with silver embroidery at the hemline or the neck. She kept the silhouettes simple.

In the Anita Dongre - TIMELESS, Anita presented ethnic wear in cotton fabric and vegetable dyes and hand block prints.

I liked the dresses done in Indian prints but again nothing very striking. Her TIMELESS collection was much better with beautiful lehengas paired with velvet blouses. All the models had the same hairstyle (ugy!!) , same style of footwear and loads of silver jewelery from Amrapali. I loved the stacked silver bangles..
