Lakmé Fashion Week (LFW) is jointly organise by Lakmé. It is the No.1 cosmetics and beauty services brand in India, and IMG Reliance. Conceived and created with a vision to redefine the future of fashion and integrate India into the global fashion world. LFW takes place twice each year, in March and August. Largest fashion event in India. International labels such as Naeem Khan and Bibhu Mohapatra have shown their collections at LFW.
After a year-long dull period, no thanks to the pandemic, the fashion industry has finally kicked off a comeback high on all style notes. For this year’s fashion extravaganza, the Lakme Fashion Week (LFW) and Fashion Design Council Of India (FDCI) came together for the first time in history for a five-day affair.
Day 1 of the extravaganza showcased a myriad of designer collections by some of the most talented designers of the industry. From Pankaj and Nidhi’s eclectic collection to Shantanu and Nikhil’s dreamy silhouettes, and Payal Singhal’s larger-than-life outfits to Arpita Mehta’s eccentric styles were some of the few big shows that took over everyone’s mind on day one. And, we witnessed some new styles on the fashion runway that was left unoccupied for days on end.
From dream-like fantasy sets to technological advancements, the first day of the fashion week blew us all away and gave us once in a lifetime experience. The wide range of quirky styles and a plethora of colours were nothing short of a vision as the graceful models dressed in exceptional collections, made their way to the ramp, each giving us an insight into the effort and imagination of bringing a design to life.
This Day 5 of the luxury collection at its best, we saw, Malaika Arora and Soha Ali Khan absolutely dazzled on the ramp at the Lakme Fashion Week 2021. Today marks the 5th day of the event and the divas turned showstoppers for designers Annu and Megha Jain Madaan respectively.
Malaika Arora is no beginner to the fashion game and set the ramp on fire at the LFW 2021. She turned showstopper for designer Annu, who goes by the brand name Annu’s Creation. The actress donned a magnificent red-and-gold lehenga with heavy embroidery. The skirt was embellished with beads and sequins and had an intricately designed border. The choli had a deep neck and had similar embroidery.
Malaika wore the dupatta over her head. She is accessorised with a gold jewellery choker, matha Patti and bangles. Her makeup echoed the hues of the ensemble with shimmery gold eyeshadow, red lipstick and generous coats of mascara.
Soha Ali Khan has always amped up the fashion quotient and this time was no different either. She looked phenomenal on the ramp in a black-and-gold gown by designer Megha Jain Madaan. The gown was a strapless, jet-black number with horizontal strips of gold sequins all over the bodice and the gown.
Soha styled the ensemble with black pumps. She in her best pursuit accessorise with a dull-gold chunky bracelet and dangler earrings. Her makeup added another pop of colour to the whole outfit with purple eyeshadow, pink lipstick and heavy mascara. She also wore gold glitter on her neck.
