The words glitz and glamour are synonymous with every Arpita Mehta’s collection. For Lakmé Fashion Week Winter/Festive 2017, Arpita unveiled her ‘Midnight Muse’ sensuous but festive line that will thrill the Red Carpet Queens. The fabrics on Arpita’s favoured list were silk, chiffon, Tabi silk and georgette that were moulded into the most gorgeous, feminine silhouettes.
Introducing an exclusively created lotus inspired print, Arpita ensured it was the mainstay of the looks. Bird motifs were an addition to create a great flora and fauna fantasy. Embellishments were the highlight on the garments, as an assortment of thread work, 3D appliqués, along with sequins dazzled on the creations.
Ornate jackets were juxtaposed with a clever mix of fluid, flowing silhouettes that offered versatile options. Arpita’s formal wear creations were replete with bunches of the colourful lotus motif on an ink blue background that was stunning in its feminine beauty and designs.
It was an utterly dramatic offering with spaghetti straps, long sexy numbers and will-power creations that could be ideal for a destination-wedding trousseaux or a cocktail soirée. Also seen on the ramp were pretty slip dresses, some sharply constructed jackets, pleated palazzo pants, cropped top sets and feminine ruffled floral lehengas.
It was a fabulous fantasy of great formal wear, starting with the bandeau top and slit skirt worn with a matching cover. Lehengas looked stunning with bralets, while off-shoulder gypsy tops, long slit pencil skirts and flared strappy tops with floor skimming lehengas gave a variety to the wearer. The slit gown/coat and the tiered sheer maxi over a sexy bikini were unconventional entries. The magnificent, transparent, floor-length, ensemble with a silver body suit and bells sleeves was a dramatic fusion offering.
Bollywood’s glamorous, statuesque star Kriti Sanon looked regal as she glided down in an ornate bralet and lehenga with enticing ruffled long trails to close the show.
The ‘Midnight Muse’ collection by Arpita Mehta was undoubtedly aimed at the bold and beautiful woman who wants to make a show stopping entry wherever she goes.
