Along with beer and the Autumn Winter styles showcased in the course of the evening, the mood was full of Italian flavours and fashion.The party people drifted in decked in their dazzling best doing the usual air kissing exchange of pleasantries while surreptiously checking each other out. “The month of December is so hectic with parties back to back that I don’t know if my wardrobe will last the distance. Even after several recent shopping expeditions, I never seem to have anything to wear,” said one avid fashion follower.
Most of the ladies were in elegant cocktail dresses in classic blacks, whites and muted Winter shades discreetly embellished with just the right amount of bling.They posed enthusiastically for the photographers and were each handed a copy of their picture later in the evening as a keep-sake to take home with them.
The piano player kept the tempo up with his flawless rendition of soft light music adding a pleasing note of upscale elegance to the evening while people nibbled on the hors d’oeuvres doing the rounds. After several rounds of pleasantries, the brief fashion show had models showcasing a few select men’s ensembles, from jackets to formal suits.
Leander Paes, the show-stopper for the evening, received plenty of applause and loud cheers as he walked the ramp wearing a discreetly striped formal three piece brown suit. After the show many people still lingered on enjoying the evening and catching up with friends while some wandered into the nearby stores to checkout the merchandise and do some discreet shopping.
