DAY 1 - Pramaa by Designer Pratima Pandey and Vaishali S in association with Liva

DAY 1 - Designer Suket Dhir at FDCI LMIFW AW 19 in association with Liva

Almost surreal, a beautiful blend of quirk and structure- SUKETDHIR' latest collection spells playfulness in all forms. The way the iconic golfer print dances lightly on our contemporized fabrics, the way our tailored silhouettes integrate nazakat..

The highlight of the collection is 'He for She', menswear silhouettes for women. Blazers, bombers, shirts, and trousers all in slimmer fits and softer cuts. Brocades are interpreted into a chic fabric with a faded sheen and digi-prints, satin-silks are translated into comfortable lounge suits and cotton and khadi render into mesmerizing falls.

The menswear collection takes the brand's aesthetics a notch higher with less is more philosophy further transforming into ethereal timeless pieces. The delicate jamdani weave plays with iconic brand motifs of clouds, umbrellas, mango and mango trees. An ode to the memoirs of childhood and those days of merrymaking.
