The Mumbai edition of India Kids
Fashion Week (IKFW) 2016 concluded on a spectacular note with refreshing styles
and new trends making a grand entry in the kids fashion week. Brands and
designers left no stone unturned to amaze the audiences with the finest
collections for kids dominating the ramp this season. The fashion extravaganza
saw over 20 brands and ace designers display ravishing collections for the
little ones. The mini divas stole the hearts of the audiences in their vibrant
attires and cute looks all throughout the three-day event.
Day 3 of the event saw brands Abhipri-The Jodhpur
Paridhan, Sugar Candy, Moriko Organic, Pink Cow, BIBA, Era, OKS BOYS and
designer Archana Kochhar showcase their collections. It was ace designer
Archana Kochhar who ruled the roost on the finale with her stunning
collections. She not only set the ramp ablaze with her new kids’ line, but also
concluded the show with dance, music and fashion. Children performed ballet and
hip-hop while walking the ramp and rocked ’n’ rolled on the runway sporting the
trendiest collections crafted by Archana. The designer took inspiration from
everything that kids love and her collections were created keeping kids comfort
in mind. Crooning and shaking his leg to the popular number Jumme ki raat
hai.., singer Mika Singh enthralled the crowd. He thanked everyone present at
the show and addressed himself as a bad boy with a good heart. In his all-black
get up, Mika walked in style as the showstopper for the Next-gen boy’s
collection, ‘Archana Kochhar for Copperstone’. Her daughter Simran fondly known
as “Noni” assisted her for the flower girl collection, ‘Noni by Archana
Kochhar’. The last couture round had super models such as Alecia and Anjali Raut, Pooja Bamrah, Gale, Dyananda,
Sushri, Karishma Modi and Amruta Patki sashaying down the ramp showcasing
pretty cocktail lehenga sarees, sari gowns,
crop tops and skirts with their little counterparts in corresponding
outfits. Pretty belle Daisy Shah
scorched the ramp in an intricately designed anarkali that oozed elegance.
The last day of the IKFW 2016 Mumbai event began in a
royal way with the collections put forth by Abhipri-The Jodhpur Paridhan. They
were a perfect amalgamation of contemporary and vintage designs that stood true
to the culture of Jodhpur. Raziya Sultan fame Pankhuri Awasthy dazzled the ramp
as the showstopper in an ethnic Rajwadi suit. Kids looked resplendent in their
jodhpuri suits and Rajwadi royals that were inspired by the rich culture of
Jodhpur city.
Traditional yet vivid designs made a striking statement
as the kids gracefully walked the ramp for apparel wear SugarCandy. And it was
none other than popular designer Archana Kochhar, who descended on the ramp in
a stylish outfit as the showstopper for Seema Khandelwal.
Young fashionista Shruti Dharwadkar promoted sustainable
clothing through her label Moriko Organic’s latest collection, ‘The Yellow
Brick Road’. The show started high on cute quotient and the sunny yellow prints
popped up all over the place. The inspiration behind her collection was L Frank
Baum’s classic American story, The Wizard of Oz. The live band performance in
collaboration with True School of Music added some drama to the show.
The world of fairy tales was resonated for the little
kids by the apparel brand Pink Cow. The collection featured vintage-style
dresses for kids that stood out for its own unique sense of style and
fashion. Gorgeous beauties Piaa Bajpai,
Simple Kaul and Sandeepa Dhar looked just like decked-up dolls in their long
and flowing gowns.
Leading brand BIBA unveiled the Spring Summer 2016
collection for kids at the fashion week. The collection included interesting
mix of long, multilayered silhouettes in varied prints and soft pastels. Little
girls looked ethereal in the BIBA outfits as they walked the ramp with élan and
posed for the shutterbugs. A lot of shibori, embroidery and traditional weaves
were used in crafting the kids wear. B’town newbie Madhurima Tuli sizzled down
the ramp in off-white printed BIBA anarkali teamed with heels and minimal
accessories.
The most colourful and vibrant collections were showcased
by apparel brand Era. Kids walked the ramp in a riot of colours fascinating the
audiences. Elegant and modern, liberating and comfy, the collection showcased
by Era exuded sophistication and elegance. The designers chose a sober look for
Bollywood actor Kartik Aaryan who graced the ramp as the showstopper in a silk
kurta pyjama with dupatta.
The most entertaining show was put up by O’KS. With high
octane beats in the background and the cool dudes in their trendiest avatars
danced their way across the ramp. From printed and trendy waistcoats, denims
and casual outfits, these little models rocked the stage with their uber cool
performances. Actor Harshavardhan Rane sported cropped pants and slim blazer
and was in his fashionable best as the showstopper for O’KS BOYS.
Mr. Manoj Mahla, Director, Craftworld Events said, “The
Mumbai edition was a grand success and I want to thank all our partners,
brands, designers and especially the juniors and their parents for making it to
India Kids Fashion Week. Without their support, we wouldn’t have been able to
put forth an outstanding three-day fashion extravaganza. We’ve seen the launch
of some avant garde collections that will surely be a success with buyers. The
designers and brands put in a lot of thought in each outfit to make it perfect
for the little ones.”
Speaking on the event Mr. Deepak Choudhary, Director
& CEO, Event Capital, said, “IKFW has always received support from leading
designers and top brands. Several new brands and emerging designers were able
to display their collections and make their presence felt in the kidswear
space. I am glad we were able to provide a platform for buyers to connect with
the right designers and brands. We are looking forward to our Delhi edition”
The show doesn’t end here. Next, India Kids Fashion Week
2016 will be held in Delhi from June 17 to 19.
