Menswear is all set to change the world of fashion. With a special mens fashion week in New York there is no doubt that menswear which wasn’t considered to be very happening is now getting all the deserved attention and India is not far behind. For the first time three menswear designers will be putting up a specially curated show at Amazon Fashion Week this season. This will be new start at the Amazon India Fashion Week Autumn-Winter 2016 in association with Maybelline New York. Antar-Agni by Ujjawal Dubey, Divyam Mehta and Rohit Kamra and will present their designs on the fourth day 19th March of the AIFW AW6 at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, Lodhi Road.
Antar Agni’s Autumn-Winter collection titled “The Red in Us”, will explore the varied emotions that red exudes. Red is extreme, a stimulator, heavy, intense and a stirrer. The collection aims at the controlled use of oxidised red as an extreme element, paired with fabrics with character, acting as a vent for the persistent human neutral state.
“Into the Woods”, a collection by Divyam Mehta, draws inspiration from trees and textures bringing out a feeling of freedom, intensity and blissfulness, harmoniously blending into laboriously executed Shibori patterns.
Interestingly, Rohit Kamra’s collection will redefine the royal look by modernizing it through sharply tailored bandhgalas and breeches. “Made in Jaypore” will see a huge Jaypore influence seeping into the ensembles.
Sunil Sethi, President, FDCI said, “The three hand-picked designers showcasing a menswear collection at the upcoming Amazon India Fashion Week Autumn-Winter 2016 will add undiluted pizzazz to the event. This is a first for us, as we felt it will give a 3D experience to the viewers. The shortlisted male models will also get an opportunity to debut on the AIFWAW’16ramp through this valuable addition.”
