WLIFW final day

It was an amalgamation of dreams and reality at the final day of Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week as designer Joy Mitra chose to showcase a collection that recalled colonial India, while designer Nida Mahmood showcased a line inspired by her quirky dreams.

Nida, who is known for presenting a Bollywood-inspired ramp with hit songs playing in the background, did it again this time but in a very different way through her "Sapna Cinema" collection. The designs had lot of psychedelic prints and quirky designs with a silhouette that has dominance of pret collection.

"The collection is called Sapna Cinema. I have taken inspiration from the crazy, mad dreams that we often see. So its about all those fun things that we see, it's about realistic space that happen in our dreams.

"When you are dreaming, you see lot of crazy things and I tried to give those thoughts a form through my collection. My muse this season is rooster so I have used lot of rooster inspired motif," said the designer after the show.

Nida used lot of funky stuff including some 3-D garments too. The use of dialogues from Hindi films with the word "sapna" in them added more drama to the show.

"The collection is very summery with lot of fabrics like cotton, silk, crepe and very interesting Japanese fabric. There has been heavy usage of prints and embroideries to give the collection realistic approach. So I have used lot of fish flowing, lot of dots spread here and there. It's all about my dream and my imagination," she added.

She also used accessories like masks covering the face of model.

Nida shared the show with designer Joy Mitra and designer-duo Hemant and Nandita.

While Joy's collection titled "An evening at the Town Hall" had taken inspiration from colossal India, Hemant-Nandita's line was highly dominated by sportswear garments.

"My collection talks about town hall in India during the British era. It's an amalgamation of Indian and western taste.. I have tried to do use lot of Indian garment and give it a modern feel. So when you see the anarkalis, there are few which are influenced by Victorian era and have both an anarkali and a gown feel to it. One can wear it both ways," Joy told IANS.

The designer used lot of lehangas, gowns, saris and dresses teamed up with jackets on the fabrics that varies from georgette, chiffon and silk.

"The collection is a mix of georgette and net with interesting embroideries, textural treatments and elegant design elements," he said.
