Pooja Kapoor
“Nip and Tuck” was the title of the collection by Pooja Kapoor and the designer proved her expertise with layers for chiffon dresses, very free flowing and relaxed in silhouettes for summer wear. Pleating details appeared on shoulders while cowls on jersey necklines with pin tucks added to the glamour of garments. Dhoti draped skirts, asymmetrical jackets and wrap around dress and summer coat with voluminous sleeve interest added to the charm of the collection which was high on construction but utterly feminine to behold.
Sabah Khan
For something very funky, quirky and wacky, Sabah Khan showed a colourful cotton collection of separates with prints of women on the blouses, skirts and dresses as the focal point of the line. Colour blocking played an important part of the sun dresses which were often teamed with churidars or pants. While appliqués added excitement to the long bubble tops with maxi bias skirts. Patch work also came into the collection which at times had the retro French musketeer influence or a touch of harlequin fun aspects.
Sandeep Sarkar
Showing a pure prêt line of white with touches of shaded green and yellow for breezy summer wear, there were touches of sheer and opaque in the layered creations by Sandeep Sarkar. Pastel colours with delicate embroidery added to the feminine charm of the garments as chiffon, organza, net and voile was turned into shirts, blouses, cool jackets and tiny shrugs. A great mix and match look for summer that could sell well.
Siddhartha Upadhyaya
Calling the collection “As you Like It” Siddhartha Upadhaya allowed the wearer to choose between the regular or upside way of wearing his creations which gave two options for the price of one; as all the eight creations were completely reversible. Red, blue, rose, grey, white for fabrics like satin and silk had intricate detailing on one side while the reverse showed another look of the dress. Net edged some of the hems, while fan shaped fringes added interesting detailing to the will-power edges of the cocktail creations. A very interesting line in these days of recession
Sougat Paul
Swirls of fabrics, appliqués, tonal embroidery was cleverly used for summer skirts and dresses and innovative texturing which gave the collection by Sougat Paul a very highly crafted extreme look. Shades of purple, maroon, beige, and cream, satin and silk were meticulously crafted. The detailed origami touches and 3D texturing of fabrics for all the women’s wear was beautifully done in an unconventional and dramatic manner. Here was a collection ideal for cocktail glamour.
Sukhwant Buttar & Aastha Sharma
Called “Auction of Humanity” and the inspiration from the slaves of Africa the eight garments by Sukhwant Buttar and Aastha Sharma was a story in grey, beige and black for silhouettes which were a mix of lean and slim with wide and voluminous along with touches of the bondage look and detailing like gathers, cowls and strapped belts. The fabrics were coarse and slubbed with frayed seams to give a rustic look to the garments. It was a stylish collection with a touch of the contemporary. Short balloon one shoulder dress, a dress with interesting knife pleats, asymmetric cuts in skirts and a one loose batwing sleeve flared dress will make good conversation pieces in fashion.
Surbhi Chawla
It was a story of drapes and elegant evening wear by Surbhi Chawla in shades of nude pink, peach, tan, pale moss, white and dark grey. Cowls added style to long shirts with kimono sleeves and pleating was the centre of attraction for gowns with embroidered neckline. Oversized shirts worked very well with striped pants and a very hep dungaree with floral embroidery in fuchsia georgette was a great addition. Georgette and chiffon were the favoured fabrics for the collection and at times used cleverly for the rouched trousers. Very stylish and at times avant garde in appearance the outfits had a trendy youthful appeal,
Vipin Batra
Presenting a well designed all knit line of minis and slinky gowns in shades of blue, grey and rose, Vipin Batra’s beautiful but simply designed cotton knit creations with the wonderful geometric abstract swirls and designs that highlighted the outfits was aptly called “Swirls of Light”. The silhouettes were very basic to allow the designs to make an impact and the line was a perfect option for summer/resort 2010 which will have amazing mass appeal.

Anupama Dayal
The explosive colours and burning thirst of the ancient sands mix with the seductive distraction of resort living perfectly defines the look of my collection - As said by Claude Monet, “Colour is my day long obsession, joy and torment,” .Her collection draws inspiration from the vivacious city of Jaisalmer but with a twist, where Jaisalmer meets Ibiza. Collection is for the nomadic, freedom loving, green conscious, fearless and liberal but, at the same time, very feminine woman. Well described as the strong minded woman of today. Palette is more mad and crazy. The colour sensibilities and the unique spirit of Rajasthan has been well highlighted and I’ve never gone more crazy with colours - it’s all about spicy greens, dancing reds, fire pinks, kingfisher blues and marbled colours.” Free flowing, voluminous, loose dresses, kaftans, tunics, skirts, saris, resort dresses and floor sweeping dresses in a medley of signature prints, Rajasthani embroidery, tie and dye, embellished with gota work, patch and appliqué work. Draping, pleating, and wraps offer the idle look of resort wear line, woven in variety of fabrics, mainly layer upon layers of sheer fabrics to offer transparency and light feel. Tie and dye leheriyas, shiboris, chiffons, silks, chanderis, and georgettes have been treated with organic dyes to provide a soft feel to the garments. Models on the runway will be featuring bronze faces, couture with minimal makeup - overall a Sun Goddess meeting a warrior princess look, well accessorized with jewellery, designed by the desginer herself.
A riot of colours exploded on the ramp as a flowing resort line dazzled the audience with hints of nomadic silhouettes. Dresses, kaftans, tunics, saris, skirts, resort gowns were dappled with prints and twinkled with Rajasthani embroidery and gota work. Drapes, layering, pleats and wraps gave an utterly feminine touch to the sheer translucent fabrics. The simple green shirt dress in marbled colours, the wrap dress constructed by using leheriya and marbled dyes in shades of pink, the pretty layered long dress with layers of prints, front wrap dresses, the long desert dress in georgette with slit bell sleeves and tiny fitted waist coat, the hand printed pleated backless halter with a front cross over and dresses with drapes and knotted strategically at the waist and shoulder were part of this very festive and utterly fluid collection.

Shilpa Chavan (The Little Shilpa)
Her models were uniformly clad in long sleeved white shirts but it was their head gear that had the audience applauding all the way. Shilpa Chauhan’s Little Shilpa label’s summer/resort offering for extreme head gear was titled “Life in Technicolor” and that is exactly what it was with multi coloured acrylic pieces in varying geometric shapes arranged on the head, shoulders, wrists, arms and even ankles. Inspired by the Apache Red Indian look there were feathers, leaves and assorted pieces arranged imaginatively on the head. Sling bags matched the look and white stockings which even covered the shoes kept the attention on the millinery skills of Shilpa. Her finale was an almost alien monster look in a white bodysuit covered with colourful pieces that got a standing ovation from the audience.

Detailing was restricted to partial side layers for jackets or blouses or a flowing attached cape to shirts and belts for blouses and jackets.
