New year, new season of Lakmé Fashion Week (LFW) is here! Yes, you guessed it right, we’re quite excited to welcome the spring/summer essentials in our wardrobe. Lakmé Fashion Week Summer/Resort 2019 promises a lot of sartorial surprises and we’re all game for it. Day one was a mix of new talents in the fashion industry and experts of the trade. But all were in tune with the new wave of the season.
Here are all the things we loved from the first of LFW:
The Gen Next Show

Ek Katha, Ujjwala Bhadu, Birdwalk and Sunaina Khera were the four new designers introduced to us via the Gen Next show. If one showed us how to dress for a sunny day then the other showed us how to deck up for the tempered nights. It was a lineup of fresh new ideas ready to be explored in the upcoming season.

The name says it all, doesn’t it? When designer brands like Ajay Kumar, Helena Bajaj Larsen, YAVI and Bobo Calcutta come together to show us that fashion is art indeed and just a mundane industry.

Rohit Bal showcased his new collection ‘Guldastah’ at LFW bringing all the floral glory to life. Rohit worked closely with Kashmiri weavers and gave us this regal collection. The final act of the day also captured the sweetest moment of the day when Rohit presented a rose to each weaver who worked on the collection.
