Lakme Fashion Week
9 pm (Tuesday) > Abu Jani-Sandeep Khosla
As Asha Bhosle and Bappi Lahiri's memorable chartbusters from the 1970s and 1980s blared over the loudspeakers, models took to the runway in ultra-glam gold-sequinned gowns that rivalled the shiny disco balls hanging from the ceiling. High on drama and bling, Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla’s ode to the retro chic era with their latest collection, Jawani Jaaneman, was nothing short of entertaining and kick-started Lakmé Fashion Week Winter/Festive 2015 with a bang on Tuesday evening.

While a few outfits (read: an all-gold men’s blazer and full-sequinned pants) looked visibly non-functional, we loved the detailing that went into most of the line. Packing in pleats, ruffles, bell sleeves and bell bottom pants, the collection comprised red carpet gowns, structured dresses, dhoti sarees, floor-length capes, jump suits as well as airy kaftans in their signature whites, beiges and ash grey.
