It is the 32nd edition of India Fashion Week SS’19 and with a new sponsor Lotus Makeup and with a new name Lotus Makeup India Fashion Week SS’19, the show took off with an exhilarating start. The 4-day long fashion buzz seems to have a special ring to it and we can’t wait to listen to every whoosh of the fabric, the high notes of fashion and the bold self-speaking styles.

 Lotus Makeup India Fashion Week SS19

The prime focus of the Lotus Make-Up India Fashion Week in association with Nexa Spring Summer 2019, is to bring ensembles of the fashion architects that have a promising future and mark their label for decades in the fashion world. Here are the details for your perusal.

LMIFW 2019 Highlights:

Day 1 Highlights:

1. Pero:

Designer Aneeth Arora opened the LMIFW SS19 with her trend chic label, Pero. This season the designer brought ‘Finding Pero’, a collection that took us for a ride along the long-lost islands, the serenity of the deep blue seas and the beauty of colors and patterns of marine landscape. She showcased her collection at an offsite location, The Park, New Delhi. Every piece of the collection revolved around color blocking theme, a mix of frills and ruffles, crochet accents and beaded highlights.

2. Anupamaa by Anupama Dayal:

Every designer’s collection at every fashion show has a story to tell and Anupama Dayal this SS19 brought the theme of the Japanese art of golden repair with her collection ‘Broken’. In a myriad of hues, with eclectic prints and patterns, she highlighted luxury styles in easy-breezy folds. The concept of ‘every broken piece has its own beauty’ spelled loudly through her collection. With starfish (which can regenerate new limbs when the old ones are damaged) motifs and patchwork are a symbolic way of her quoting that –we women break down in many situations and events but emerge brighter and much more beautiful with our strength.

Anupamaa by Anupama Dayal

3. Samant Chauhan:

“At some point in your life, this statement will be true: tomorrow you will lose everything forever.” – Charles Wu was all Samant Chauhan’s collection was based on. Inspired by Mumbai, the transformation of the city from Chawls to skyscrapers, and fast-paced present that is disappearing into the future, the collection was all about European influence and confluence. In muted palettes of whites, creams, and pale pinks, every garment translated a strong feeling of the city of dreams. Tissue and organza fabric in falling and drape patterns left a feel of transparency and the detailed embroideries brought to light the rich architectural beauty of South Bombay.

4. Huemn:

The conflict-ridden Kashmir’s cultural and socio-economic situation was what inspired the Huemn SS19 collection. The label presented a wide range of styles that were drawn to signify the city’s raw beauty and youthfulness that it holds despite the conflicts it deals with cultural and socio-economic terrains. There was multidimensional patterns, comic book prints and cut out details, athleisure styles and many more edgy styles with Huemn SS19. Rendering a playful, modern and fierce picture with day dresses, sweaters, t-shirts and many more in cotton, knits, and denim, the collection was colorful and high-spirited.
