The Van Heusen India Men's Fashion Week (VHIMW) is capturing a lot of the contemporary style statement, the event being a creation of simplicity compose and art narration.
Karan Johar & Varun Bahl's 'The Magical Metropolis' was inspired by the uber city - New York, the designer duo created a line that gives voice to the essence of the urban edge.
The Magical Metropolis attempted to capture the very mood of a quintessential sophisticated city male, who is aware yet languid. The ensemble tightly created yet at the same time unstructured in spirit. A balance so carefully honed that it appeared seamless.
The mood, dark and smoky yet suddenly with a flash of pop, a strident colour to draw the eye. Tobacco tones, blacks deepening into blues, whites reflecting cold ice, grey that turn greyer and like the flash of a paparazzi camera a cobalt blue and even a pink.
Sketches of hand drawn scenes of New York created especially for the collection, embellished silhouettes of jackets, shirts, low crotch trousers and shorts. And then a special line of jeans in denim, blue and beautiful.
The Magical Metropolis is built on foundations of linen, coated linen, cotton, voile, treated cotton, jersey and corduroy. The fabrics twisting and moving to meld into shapes that appear exceptional and wonderful.
The collection was an inspired one that the International man will adopt with fervour and pride. It bears the signature of style with a significance of individual sense and a spirit of specialness.
