Mumbai 22nd March
2015: In a perfect conclusion to the celebration of its 15-year milestone,
Lakmé Fashion Week Summer/Resort 2015 witnessed a magnificent Grand Finale by
design priestess Anamika Khanna. Anamika’s collection was inspired by
‘Sculpt’- the Lakmé beauty statement for the season.

A truly avant-garde couturier,
Anamika’s interpretation of Sculpt was a display of craftsmanship and
construction. With structured drapes, it was a fearless line, not confined to
rules but an innovative blend of ‘sculpting’ and ‘de-sculpting’. Indian crafts
were used in structural forms. The colour story played with silver, gold,
ivory, gunmetal, black, soft pink, nude and a strong blue.
The experimental silhouettes
played with structural drapes. Anamika researched extensively with embroidery
like zardosi, thread and metallic work to reinvent it to match the inspirations
for her strong but quiet creations.

Whether it was the silhouettes,
colours, embroidery or fabrics, the “Sculpt” collection by Anamika Khanna was
an intense fashion experience that left a lasting, mesmerizing impression on
the audience with the ultra-glamorous beauty of the ensembles.
Each look on the runway was
completed with Lakmé’s new range of Absolute Sculpt Matte lipsticks and
accentuated through structured hairdos. Anamika’s models strutted down the
runway with well-defined and contoured matte lips in a stunning palette of rich
plums, deep reds and feminine pinks. Backstage, the sculpted looks were
crafted by Lakmé makeup expert, Natasha Nischol, in collaboration with Lakmé
Absolute Salon hair experts.
Adding to the grandeur of this
15-year celebratory finale was an appearance by Lakmé face Kareena Kapoor Khan
who played muse to both Anamika and Natasha.

Talking
about her finale collection Anamika said, “It has been an absolute honor to
be a part of this grand 15 year celebration. Lakmé’s Sculpt statement was a
very inspiring theme to work with for my Grand Finale collection. It is an
eclectic mix of construction and deconstruction and I have played with a lot
with drapes, Indian dhoti’s and long flowy jackets – all silhouettes that truly
captures my vision of Sculpt.”

look, with a focus on matte lips, which we see as the big trend this season.
Anamika’s creations and Natasha’s make up have magnificently brought alive our
vision of Sculpt.”
