A Song of India Fashion Week
http://www.sina.com.cn 2003/08/04 10:25  上海英文星报

  AT the last show of the first day of the Bombay India Fashion Week, /where/ the ramp seemed haunted by Galliano, McQueen and fashion editorials from The Face, the Indian sari finally floated down the Shantanu and Nikhil ramp, trailing hot pink ribbons and ruched baby blue.

  Finally, one felt, this really was Indian fashion.

  Among the clothes was a pristine white linen suit on Nina Manuel. Using a palette of acid green, hot pink, white, blue and soft gold, the extremely wearable, mainly striped collection, with some well finished jackets and dangerously high minis served as indication for what was still to come.

  And India did shine brilliantly in a burst of energy on the second day. The day belonged to Rohit Bal, who put out a superlative show that would have ressurected the soul of Elvis Presley in Vegas.

  There they came out, this army of Spanish matadors in the most superbly cut bomber-jackets that seemed to be embroidered by a tribe of Lambadi women under the maestro's eagle eye.

  Opening with bare-chested lungis-over-trousers held together by tribal belts, red maang in hair and swaggering out with confidence, the Bal magic was finely tuned for applause. This was Bal at his finest.

  There were splendid jackets and sublime jeans embellished with tassles, beads, leather and handpainted Madhubani. The safety pin jeans were couture works of art. It is amazing how the simple button, tassle and Ottoman quilting was raised to the altar of couture art.
