Vikram Phadnis brings 'shimmer & shine' at resort fashion show
Bollywood’s glamorous designer Vikram Phadnis revealed a new side to his creativity when Philips presented his truly international collection at Lakmé Fashion Week Summer/Resort 2010. The look was simple and sensuous unlike the usual Vikram Phadnis offerings; as the designer moved from shimmer and shine to beautiful elegant creations.
Working on a line of crème and black Vikram’s interpretation of the resort wardrobe was practical and stylish giving the wear the comfort that holiday attire must have.
With a choice of fluid fabrics like georgette, chiffon, jersey, crepe, linen and lace Vikram opened the show with comfortable morning wear comprising crème panelled swing tops, layered blouses, lace dungarees, Bermudas, summer jackets, jumpsuits, jersey Afghan pants, puff sleeved smocks, raglan belted chiffon dress with lace bell sleeves, capris and minis.
Gently introducing just a hint of glitter in the form of striped lame for minis, Vikram brought in black for collar edges and then moved further with black tights, a swirling black print on white chiffon cape, an interesting black mini with white U shaped inset and then added some very controlled gold and bead work for yoke, bodice and corsets.

Austrian ‘...rotations' hits pret-a-porter runways-shows
The famous Austrian artist Alfons Schilling and his spin paintings are inspiration for the EDITH A’GAY collection spring summer 2010. The paintings transform a schematic, 3D motion (rotation) on 2D canvas. In her collection, EDITH A’GAY uses the aesthetics of the spin paintings as prints, the graphic elements as cutting lines, in order to bring back and anew define the ‘lost’ dimension through body movement.
The superior quality of fabrics like silk and organza in unobtrusive colours enhances the visual appearance.
The idea of the rotation was transformed into an ever moving show. The models circulated around the audience, thus created an atmosphere of constant movement, to finally walk down the middle candle-lit catwalk towards the photographers.
The basic colors are with, black and red; appear like signals in a confused world, simply but strong. The minimal touches are only some prints and ribbons. Still are the outfits light, subtle but graceful.
