ROHIT BAL
The Look: Uhhuh! Just young and stylish.Brimming with colours on white and neutrals, Rohit’s menswear rocked. Men with brawn, spears and chunky belts over lungis burst out as a start (total impact!) followed by men in trousers and jackets in all shapes and sizes. Bandgala kurtas (very Rohit) with embroidery and hand-painting were also on show.
We Liked: The Indian and Western fusion with a streak of creative insanity. Imagine safety pins on pants? Rohit seems to have a way with them too, loads of them were lined up to make motifs on white linen (interesting eh?). Paisley prints on bright silks as linings under white jackets looked attractive.
Creative Touches: Madhubani, seashells, multicoloured tassels and mirrorwork.
on slim and structured shapes.
The Verdict: For the umpteenth time he breaks the barriers of design, and this year brings parts of Asia home for our men. Few pieces were not very India-friendly or prêt though (we are talking about the furs and quilting in Indian weather, and the shaped metal frames as pockets on trousers).
Prêt: ***
