Anushree Reddy Unveils Collection: LFW S/R 2014

Anushree Reddy’s collection titled ‘The Tale of a Bow’ at Jabong Stage during Lakmé Fashion Week Summer/Resort 2014 was a classic yet contemporary take on Indian fashion.  The show started with the melodious voice of popular singer, Shibani Kashyap who looked gorgeous in a pink accented white salwar with gold and silver appliqués.  Youthful, charming and playful, this range made use of fun and versatile shades like stone grey, vintage pink, soft blush, teal blue, rustic brown, canary yellow along with natural beige. To add an ethereal charm of old-meets-new, the designer worked with rich fabrics such as malkha, Chanderi, kota, tulle, mulmul and satin on lightly structured silhouettes.

Indo-western pieces like cropped blouses, lehengas, Anarkalis, dresses, gowns, pants and cover-ups sported large innovatively placed bows in tune with the theme.The embellishments comprised zardosi work, pearl tassels, bling sequins, tube sequins and beads; while exaggerated volumes, intricate drapes helped to contour each form and worked to accentuate one’s body. Ending the show was beautiful Ileana D’Cruz who stunned all in a ravishing cream lehenga and peach toned blouse with sequins and embroidery.

Traditional yet bold, quirky yet subtle, ‘Tale of a Bow’ by Anushree Reddy was perfect for any fashionista who likes to shine.
