Bollywood stars catwalk Lakme Fashion

APRIL 2 - Designer Manish Malhotra got Bollywood star Preity Zinta to walk on the ramp with his outfit on day one of the Lakme Fashion Week (LFW) that opened in Mumbai on Tuesday March 28.

Running till Saturday, India's most prestigious fashion exhibition showcased the spring/summer collections of some of the top fashion designers of the country.

This was the first time that Preity Zinta carried a designer’s creation on ramp. However, designer Manish Malhotra clarified that Preity did not wear anything off-track from the rest of the models and that her clothes were part of the line that he was displaying.

Besides Manish Malhotra, fashion designers Surily Goel had Bollywood glamour doll Malaika Arora Khan walking with her creations.

Other Bollywood superstars who walked the ramp were Katrina Kaif, Kajol and Salman Khan. Sallu also cat walked for Surily. Katrina showed off India's topnotch Ritu Beri's costumes.

It was Mumbai-based Surily Goel's sensational debut at the show with her theme 'Romance Personified' whence she weaved a magical story about a young carefree girl who falls in love and eventually becomes a mature woman.

Actress Sushma Reddy posted the opening of the show for designer Maheka Mirpuri.

Stars like Rani Mukherjee, Aamir Khan, Neha Dhupia and Anupam Kher showed up at the event to support their favorite designers.

Actor John Abraham turned up at the end of the show clad in a black wedding suit, drawing a frenzy of applause from the audience.

Some other top names in the world of fashion like Sabyasachi Mukherjee, Manish Malhotra, Suneet Varma, Wendell Rodricks, Rocky S, Ashish Soni and Priyadarshini Rao also showcased their creativity at the five day event held in Mumbai.

Bollywood's fashion darling Rocky S's "Lolita" collection was inspired by the intuitive killer instinct in a woman. The ensembles were in various hues of pink, cherry red and forest green--all embellished with gold.

The event is considered to be very prestigious and the designers tried their best to stand out of the clutter, by whichever means possible. One way to do so was to persuade their Bollywood friends to walk on the ramp. Some did.

LFW involves media seminars, business-to-business meetings and a buyers' forum, apart from several fashion shows.

With the spring/summer Lakme Fashion Week having run from Tuesday to Saturday of the last week of March, the FDCI event, now christened the Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week, will get underway at India's captial city New Delhi April 5 and run till April 9.

Just consider the statistics of the two events: 115 designers against 67 last year, 70 shows against 35, 100 models against 48, eight choreographers against four - and, of course, two cities against only one last year.
