The second last day of WIFW Autumn/Winter 2008 opened with the presentation of Alpana & Neeraj for their label 'Azara'.
A well coordinated and balanced collection catered to a modern young client who lived in a metropolitan environment.
The cocktail dresses were kept in feminine happy colours ranging from pastel blue, powder rose, light beiges to pistachio greens. Structured bustiers with flowing layered skirts which were attached from a raised waistline gave a soft and gentle appeal o the dresses. Embellishments were apparently inspired by architecture. Motifs such as skylines and classic monumental buildings were translated into sequined embroideries. Bold straight lines ran vertically across the garments and were executed with squarish sequins in matted metallic tones. Black was used to sharply accentuate seams, border and contrasting outlines of the embroidered parts, which made the ensembles look like they had just been taken out from an artist's sketchbook.
The linear patterns were used to ornate hemline borders, front areas or entire skirts.
Feminine silhouettes were achieved through soft flowing materials such as crepe, chiffon and nets which had been united through layering techniques.
The entire programme gave a charming airy fairy feeling which will be welcomed by the young urban cocktail going crowd for the coming autumn season.
