Aneeth Arora Pero’s nursery opened the ongoing fashion week and while the collection itself was a winner, Arora added an extra element with the jewellery. Ayalla Bar earrings in beautiful aqua and green colours worked well for the all-white colour palette that Arora showcased. Bright Nike shoes with embroidered floral detailing added a spunky angle to the clothes, and so did the headbands with artificial flowers jutting out of them. The collection screamed springtime and the accessories only added to the look and feel of the foliage-inspired range.

Sanchita Ajjampur With retro as the theme designer Sanchita Ajjampur went all the way with blingy shoes and sunglasses. Multi-strap sling back sandals, trucker shoes and loafers in gold and silver added edginess to the range. The shoes were studded with Swarovski Elements. The embellished broad sunglasses worked well with the retro-futuristic collection.

Sneha Arora A range of separates with quirky prints was accompanied by a quirkier line of shoes and clutches. Transparent acrylic clutches with dried flowers inside them added a funky touch, as did the transparent, PVC flats that the models walked in. Simple and chic, these worked with the otherwise pastel collection.

Nachiket Barve Titled “Kalahari”, this Mumbai-based designer’s range was all about the stark beauty of Africa. He complemented the collection with accessories inspired by the silver jewellery of the Tuareg tribe. The laser-cut acrylic motif cuffs were specially noteworthy as were the stacked platform footwear made from raw wood and jute.

Rajesh Pratap Singh If there is one thing that never goes out of fashion, it’s denims. And when veteran designer Rajesh Pratap Singh presents them on the ramp, they look even more desirable. And what better than heavy camel-coloured combat boots with them? As usual, Singh kept the accessorising to a bare minimal. Androgyny walked the runway and these boots work well for both winters and summers.
