<p>Suneet Varma closed out this season’s Lakme India Fashion Week.<br />Against a ballroom draped in metres of fabric, three giant silver globes rotated from the ceiling throwing twinkling stars on the walls. A windmill gently rotated to the left of the stage while a silver balcony on the right of the stage was where Medival Punditz Shai’r and Func provided the most exciting live music for the show.<br />Set in a fairytale Spanish mansion was Varma’s closing show for Lakmé Fashion Week Summer/ Resort 2010.<br /><br />Inspired by the make-up brand’s Night Fever Summer 2010 collection, Varma created a dreamy line in five segments.Color My World was filled with a blitz of colours teamed with patchwork and mix-and-match options. Chiffon coats, easy tunics and draped dresses were worn with colourful tights. Zigzag print coats and side-knotted minis, panelled beach wraps, long ponchos and embroidered jackets along with belts in large crystals and metallic armbands and necklaces completed the look. Call of the Wild was an animal print, motif and texture story with colours like black, beige, chocolate and a bit of turquoise. Slinky bias-cut gowns dazzled with peridot and topaz. Net kaftans, layered frayed edged skirts, tiny blouses and capes and stoles had tie-dyed, shading and Shibori work.<br /><br /> Pucci Prints was all about graphics and geometrics for minis with fabric buttons, hip-length fitted jackets, skinny pants with slits and zips, and stately gowns in peach, cobalt, blue and emerald green.<br /><br />Preppy Argyle had checks in purple, lilac, beige and black, featuring collared tunics, dresses, wide pants with high waistbands and sexy gowns. Saris appeared with tights and minis with stockings and ruffled net capes over golden gowns.<br />The Bold and the Beautiful line was a Hollywood Red Carpet inspired look for long will-power dresses, cowl creations and evening pant suits recreating the 70s and 80s. The slinky gowns in shimmering brown, black, and green and with floral appliqués were sensational.<br /><br />The show ended in a shower of gold confetti over the ballroom as the three faces of Lakmé, Lisa Haydon in a slinky red-black gown, Amrit Maghera in a black gown with a net overlay and Indrani Dasgupta in gold, walked down the ramp alongside the designer.<br /></p>
