Now going through the Day 2 pictures of the LFW Winter/Festive has been pretty boring apart from the few high points created by Nikhil Thampi and Payal Khandwala.

The other designers seem to be favoring there and done things and most of them are not even following the bloody fashion week theme of Winter Festive! Case point in this is Artivijay Gupta whose all white printed garments really belong in a summer/spring show, i mean no one is gonna wear a nifty little sundress in winter no matter how adorable it looks.
Unhappily it seems most designer's seem to forget the Winter part so the few collections i liked also suffered from shorts, tanks and cotton flares.
**Sigh**

Another one who joined Aartivijay's Gang of Cluelessness was Nimish Shah whose clothes were winter wear but only if the festival was someone's funeral. Drab prints mixed in with those awful sweaters that looked trailer-trash borrowed made for one super eye-ache.
One designer whose work really caught my eye was
Sidharta Aryan.
I loved the way his garments moved and clung in the most flattering of ways and his mix of prints with Orient style trimmings and 50's feel of experiment was awesome.
The only thing i wish is that he would have chosen a slightly different subject for the tone of his prints. The prints he had were nice but had an undeniable seen-before quality.

Another designer who i liked was Roma Narsinghani.
Her clothes were whimsical with a bohemian mughal feel. I liked the way she had incorporated the flowing fabrics and geometric prints, they went well and gave a vibe of young indian blood.
However i wished she would have edited her outfits a little, in some cases the fabulous lines were being distorted by humongous and frankly unnecessary surface decoration. She would do well to not try to add drama to the clothes, they can create it all by themselves.
