Bollywood heart throb Bipasha Basu left the spectators with
her ever watchable ramp walk to present the exquisite collection ‘Jamawar Aria’
by couturiers Anjalee & Arjun Kapoor. The designer duo showcased their
collection at Eros Hotel, Managed by Hilton. Bipasha was the showstopper or the
show and looked stunning in the outfit by the designer duo embellished with
SWAROVSKY ELEMENTS.
Some of the guests spotted at the soiree were Bela and Roop
Madan, Neena Verma, Nishi Singh and Shwetabh Singh,Alka Bali,Neeli Jain, Priya
Kakkar,Sharmila Nath, Kitty Kalra, Payal Kapoor,Priya Jain, Ramneek Paintal,
Ammu Saidi, Tanisha Mohan, Gunita Dhingra, Atul wassan to name a few.....
The assortment is reminiscent of the Mughal era and brings
the grandeur of the period alive. As the name suggests, you can see a strong
Jamawar influence in the collection with an essence of the Renaissance era.
Aria provides a perfect ambience as the accompanying song in this opera of
extravangance. There is an interesting play of concepts representing two
distinct lines; opulent Victorian construction gowns and extravagant Jamawar
inspired bridal couture.
The mesmerizing gowns will cast a spell on you. Resplendent
with ruffles and texture, they give you a fairytale like feel. Mermaid fits
continue the romance along with the use of peplum to construct the gowns.
Typical of the Renaissance era, fitted torsos which flair out at the bottom
into voluminous layers are created which give them a dream like appeal. Power
shoulders add a pack of punch and present the line with edginess. Embellished
with SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS the embroidery interspersed with delicate roses and
over the top use of feathers lends a very glamorous appeal to the ensemble,
which makes it befitting for nothing less than the red carpet.
Bridal couture has been redefined in the Jamawar Aria. The
rich cultural heritage has been celebrated in the bridal line and Jamawar has
been taken to a whole new level by the designers’ interpretation and
imagination. Ethnicity is kept intact fusing it with modern construction to
make the ensemble fit for a modern bride. Generous use of fine fabrics such as
the rich velvet and Benarasi as the base for lehengas and anarkali suits has
been made.
Intense threadwork embroidery
has been meticulously worked upon. Tulle and cancan is extravagantly used as an
accent, to create a lacy, floating look. An ever favourite with their brides,
deep colours like burgundy, tomato red and hot pink dominate this line.
Enchanting cocktail sarees using shimmer chiffon sashay the ramp. Bejewelled
borders with Renaissance motifs all over as the jaal of the saree can be seen.
These very stylized sarees will cause a sensation to say the least. Extremely
detailed bejewelled bustiers have been coordinated with the sarees and
lehengas. The collection, delightfully encrusted with SWARVOSKI ELEMENTS, sets
the mood for playful glamour. In the designer’s words, “A blouse forms a very
important part of an ensemble. It adds character to the outfit and speaks
volumes of the wearer’s style. We always pay extra attention to the blouse
because it makes or breaks an outfit.”
The prospective groom has not been left out and avant garde
floor length sherwanis which reek of flamboyance have been specially crafted.
The silhouette is traditionally Mughal. These elaborate sherwanis radiate
splendor and make the wearer feel like a king! Fun indo-western jackets find a
place in the men’s collection which can be worn stylishly over a kurta payjama
and donned as easily over pants. Interesting cuts mark the line of jackets
which are much desired by the men of taste.
Very interesting laser cut metallic belts have been
introduced in the Jamawar Aria collection. These belts make a statement on
their own and are instant eye catchers. These can be worn or sarees or with
Kaftans and western garments. SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS in the color of the season are
used imaginatively and lavishly in this collection, adding opulence.
