Hold everything ladies, Vikram Phadnis is having a 3 day consultation workshop for Future Brides (and women who generally want advice on their personal style). From the 13th he’s presenting his new festive collection of the season in association with FUEL. He himself will be stationed at Fuel Chowpatty, Charni Road (Mumbai) on the 14th and 15th of July. For appointments call Shradha Malhotra on 23697171.
So the press note claims that, “when it comes to her wedding, a bride and her family consider her designer a demi god who will translate all her and her family’s dreams to reality.” Um, I’m not quite sure you should take it that far but I see how it’s definitely top priority for any bride to look her best.

THE BRIDE AND HER DESIGNER
When it comes to her wedding, a bride and her family consider her designer a demi god who will translate all her and her family’s dreams to reality.
When a woman is ready to enter the second phase of her life, she wants to tell The World, She is the Best who helps her in creating a surreal picture about herself?
HER DESIGNER
Today private consultations with designers, to create a look for a girl from the time she gets engaged to the time she gets married and to carry on with her life after marriage, has become extremely important as well as necessary.
It is the Job of the designer to understand the nature and moods of his bride to be able to create a look for her which portrays her true self.
Today’s girl is a simple girl and simplicity is the key to her clothes. Her needs may be few but are very specific. The designer not only designs the clothes but also guides the girl on the jewellery she should wear and what shoes and bag to carry with it. Sometimes the girl may want to wear an old heirloom piece of Jewellery of the family, then the designer keeps that in mind and designs accordingly.
TROUSSEAU
A very important word when there is a wedding the magic which the designer has created for the girl for her wedding has to be continued over the next few months after, to give her the magical feel for some time to come. All the different occasions that she may need to attend later can be catered for by the designer in her trousseau. Cocktail parties, lunches, kitty’s, business dinners, friends wedding etc are kept in mind for the coming months to prepare her trousseau.
