After Indian Premier London Fashion Week (IPLFW) we will get to see Kolkata Couture Fashion Week (KCFW) coming-up soon Idea Weavers. The recently announced 'Gitanjali Lifestyle Kolkata Couture Fashion Week' will be held from September 9-12 at Swissotel Kolkata. The first season of KCFW is all set to showcase the couture collection for 2010.
Idea Weavers has conceptualized this platform to present Indian couture fashion art by not only established ace designers of India but also for the budding aspirants in the Indian fashion industry.
The four-day long event will be choreographed by John Wolford from London. A professional team of Dolly Jain who holds the Limca Book of Records for draping saris in more than 100 styles will be heading the team of dresses at the event whereas Inglot will be giving the models at KCFW the most stunning look.
Top models of the country will be sashaying down the ramp for designers of international repute like Neeta Lulla, Vikram Phadnis, Anju Modi, Archana Kochhar and others. The fashion week will also unfold many budding and upcoming talented designers' collection.
Mehul Choksi, Chairman, Gitanjali Group says, "The Kolkata Couture Fashion Week 2010 is certainly an important hub of all creative and business forces responsible for making West Bengal a key fashion market. It certainly offers a gigantic potential to capture the consumer mindscape and subtly weave in the threads of jewellery and accessories as well. Hence, Gitanjali is the title sponsor of the event; keeping in mind the creative enthusiasm depicted by the fashion industries and design process equally challenged and energised."
Vivek Agarwal of Idea Weavers says, "It's a pleasure to come back with KCFW after IPLFW. Though initial glitches were there in IPLFW but then it isn't a easy task to start-off any event, there are many things involved hand-in-hand. Moreover, it was all well when the show started. Our base is in Kolkata, hence it is the best platform to showcase the stuff here, especially bridal-wear booms in Kolkata. We have good established labels with us and also to complete the list we have many budding designers."
He adds saying, "Couture always attract the fashion fraternity of Kolkata. With the wedding and festival season round the corner. It's a perfect time for such an event in Kolkata which has everything to do with only Couture. This fashion week will also encourage and influence the gen-next to think of couture fashion as a viable career option."
This is definitely something to wait and watch-out for!
