March 24th, 2009 - 1:52 pm ICT by ANI New Delhi, Mar 24 (ANI): A dim lit stage and haunting music provided a perfect setting for fashion designer Rohit Bal’’s collection at the grand finale of the Delhi Fashion Week here last evening.
Mysteries of the night unfolded in a mystical and myriad presentation as models walked the ramp in Bal’’s collection aptly titled ”Raat”.
Known for his creativity on ramp, Bal again surprised everybody by his intense and dark collection inspired by danger and darkness and all things evil.
“It was about danger, it was about seduction, it was about lust, sensuality and sexy. It was about demons in the night. It was something that reflects a darker part of your personality,” said Bal.
Textures, layering, mixing and other techniques were combined to create an imaginative yet wearable collection of evening gowns, dresses, jackets and voluminous skirts.
Silks, heavy cottons, net. Voiles, silk jerseys, organza and felt, all the fabrics were used imaginatively to create dresses in silhouetted ranging from the opulence of Marie Antoinette to Victorian and Vintage.
The colour palette also followed the moods of the night as dress after dress was showcased by models on ramp in colours of black, deep purple and other such dark colours.
The six-day event, Delhi Fashion Week is a collection of highly creative designers which has set new standards for the Indian fashion industry and is creating greater opportunities for fashion designers. (ANI)
