For those of you who wish to experience fashion week, let me sum it up for you. Chaos in a whirlwind mixed with inspiration, awe, excitement, a little turmoil and a whole lot of warmth. Yup, these were some of the many emotions felt within my itty bitty body as Lakmé Fashion Week commenced yesterday! The feeling was overwhelming and just brilliant. Though I would love to narrate and show you the dazzling looks/outfits that caught my eye on the ramp – I’m going to jump straight into the beauty part of the runway, for now.
I was all ready with my camera in one hand and tiny note pad in the other (balancing the two ain’t an easy job, mind you), and set to watch the Gen Next show. From the moment it began to the moment it ended, something within me was in an uproar and I was consumed! The clothes were ‘next level’ awesome but damn, the makeup on their faces had an artistic, almost sculpted touch that just blew me away altogether. Check out a few of the Gen Next as well as the other designer runway beauty looks that deserve a post of their own!
1) P.e.l.l.a
Face paint and dramatic hair got us fallin’ in love!
2) Kanika Goyal
I just love, LOVED the designs. Oh and that geometric face paint left me speechless!
3) Greusha
Creativity at it’s peak and art at it finest.
4) Salita Nanda
See what I mean when I say the Gen Next show left me speechless?! Yup, it keeps getting better and better. We loved everything on the runway.
5) Manish Bansal
Face paint never looked so good on a man before THIS.
6) Masaba
In a one of a kind Instagram fashion show, Masaba channeled the candy girl within us and put on a great show with eye popping, colourful makeup.
7) DRVV
Edgy vibes and asymmetrical silhouettes grabbed our attention but not as much as the makeup by Natasha Nischol did! Ladies and gentlemen, this is what you get when art meets fashion.
8) Verb by Palavi Singhee
Slick ponytails and minimalistic makeup meant we were much more attentive to the beautiful outfits.
9) Frou Frou by Archana Rao
Make-up that was simple, elegant and had a dewy touch to it! Flawless.
10) Huemn
Bold and feminine was the fashion and beauty concept that enabled Huemn to orchestrate an amazing show yet again.
11) Vaishali S
As an up-do lover – the hair, plus the dewy and simple make-up, spoke volumes.
12) [Ka] [Sha]
These striking yet minimalistic make-up looks made these stunning outfits pop at the [Ka] [Sha] show.
13) Surendri by Yogesh Chaudhary
Bold lips, hair pulled back and simple makeup with statement jewellery – everything we adore!
14) Manish Malhotra
Need I say more…?
15) Sabyasachi
Any fashionista will know that Sabyasachi never fails to put on the most unexpected and beautiful shows. Clean, fresh, neutral makeup – yes please!
