There is a reason why the finale show of a fashion week is prefixed with the word grand. And veteran designer Tarun Tahiliani justified the phrase with a theatrical presentation,a majestic set and opulent creations on the last day of Aamby Valley India Bridal Fashion Week (IBFW) in the Capital. Living up to its reputation,the show was almost two-hours late and at the risk of sounding cliched,one must admit that it was worth the wait.
This,however,was not the collections first outing as it had already been showcased at Tahilianis annual bridal exposition 10 days ago in the city. It was the drama that accompanied the range that gave it the edge. As the lights dimmed,six contemporary dancers from the Attakkalari group,dressed in shimmery golden ensembles,danced their way to the front.
The second part of the show,The Enchanted Forest,was starkly different from the previous one and was whimsical and edgy. Green,pink,red,ivory,and beige were the primary colours. Tahilianis creation had a global appeal to them as he added some Spanish influences from bolero blouses to frilly lehengas and cocktail dresses. The Tahiliani groom too got ample space on the ramp with dhotis,pathani,jackets and sherwanis teamed with broad encrusted belts.
Rich embroideries and heart-shaped back necklines gave goosebumps to many in the audience. But one wouldnt expect any less.
