lakme fashion week a/w 2014

Its that time of year again when Lakmé Fashion Week is all over your dash on tumblr, your pins on pinterest and tweets on twitter. Sometimes it can be overwhelming, sometimes sifting through all the designers seems like a daunting task, sometimes you see the same piece by the same designer over and over again and wonder what about the rest of the collection? Not to worry, I rolled up my sleeves and got to work--picking my favourites from the 2014 A/W season. This year was especially exciting since 4 Pakistani designers were featured, two of which--Sanya Maskatiya and Zara Shahjahan--are two of my favourite designers. Personally, I like subtlety and detail two things that are hard to pull off but I feel India and Pakistan can get right a lot of the times. My favourite collections were by Sanjay Garg--it was absolute perfection with the metallics, details, colours, fabric---Zara Shahjahan whose collection can be called a mix between Shehlaa by Shehla Khan and Anushree Reddy and so was a great display of soft romantic pieces with a tastes of florals and detailed embroidery, Anushree Reddy who wowed me again--especially with the measuring tape borders and of course Manish Malhotra who is always a sure bet to deliver, thats why he was the finale show. An honourable mention to Payal Singhal whose clothing cuts and overall design was standout to me.

I know this post is super long and heavily image based so try and bear with me!
