A Varun Chakkilam collection has always presented a glamorous, dazzling look at shows. For the FDCI x Lakmé Fashion Week, the designer unveiled his “Art Nouveau” line for Spring/Summer 2021 aimed at the sensuous, mysterious woman. Varun’s muse has always been the woman who respects ancient artisanal offerings and appreciates the rich beauty of nature.
The collection was inspired by the art movement of 18th century that was a glorious time in history. Keeping the inspiration in creative focus, Varun selected a colour card favourable to art. There was the ever-popular, feminine pink, while tranquil green and mustard created variety, but teal brought in shades of serene appeal.
Stopping the show was the very elegant Pooja Hegde who looked ethereal in a blue and white, heavily, embellished lehenga with cascading embroidery, worn with a tiny ornate choli and matching dupatta. The sheer dupatta looked absolutely gorgeous with heavy and intricate blue and white embroidery and a short cropped choli. She kept her makeup dewy with a natural blush and soft wavy hair cascading down her back. She looked breathtaking.
The look spelt opulence in all its grandeur as intricately hand embroidered bustiers looked magical when worn with voluminous skirts, while the slinky elegant gowns were drizzled with a shower of sequins. The detailing appeared in the form of tailored peplums as well as drapes that were beautifully visualised to present a feminine flatter image.
The ornate lehenga, choli and dupatta trios looked magnificent with their gorgeous embroidery, while the spaghetti strap gown, pre-stitched sari, embroidered kurti over draped lungi and the ruffled dupatta teamed with corset style choli and lehenga; added to the grandeur of the collection. Some eye-catching additions were the slashed cape over a teal printed lehenga and choli, while the angular hemline of the midi kurta over maxi skirt showcased formal elegance.
Bringing in just three men’s ethnic wear creations, Varun limited them to the pale green tone for the sherwani, button less, bundgala, jacket, kurta, bundi and the stylish dupatta.
Varun Chakkilam’s “Art Nouveau” collection was a dazzling blend of epochs and traditions that will turn into timeless pieces for the fashion lovers.
