WENDELL RODRICKS and SANCHITA AJJAMPUR: Goa-based Wendell Rodricks,who made his debut as a menswear designer,sent out his boys in a gender-bending collection,kitted in floor-length sherwanis,shiny skinny pants,tunic-length shirts and the knock-out look — model Lalit Tehlan walked out in a black V-cut vest,embracing his feminine side. Ajjampur,on her part,cranked out a slouchy,relaxed collection — racerback tees,bomber jackets,bluish boiler suits paired with tan sandals.

ANKITA and ANJANA BHARGAV: Their collection was all about drop crotch pants dropped even lower. “These are drop-drop-drop crotch pants,” said Anjana Bhargav of her zouaves cut pants. Their collection — minimal luxe — played with soft gauze cottons,hand-crushed silks and pashmina weave and tussar combinations.

MANOVIRAJ KHOSLA: He played with bold pinks,yellow and blue,colours reminiscent of Escada in the late 1990s,with emphasis on eye-popping piping. The pants were tapered and fitted and showed the marriage of Bollywood with fashion. Kunal Kapoor was the showstopper,and for the finale,cricketers Nikhil Chopra and Sanjay Manjrekar sported clean-cut suits.
