Mallya Junior attends LFW show sans Deepika Padukone

Mumbai, March 14 – Although Sidharth Mallya, son of liquor baron Vijay Mallya, and actress Deepika Padukone are usually seen making public appearences together, this time Sidharth came alone to attend designer duo Shantanu-Nikhil's Lakme Fashion Week (LFW) show.

Sidharth is often seen with Deepika at city events, but at Shantanu-Nikhil's show, the 23-year-old came solo, although a few other Bollywood celebrities like Urmila Matondkar and Shamita Shetty occupied first row seats along with him.

'Our collection is called Divonics and it is inspired by the super sexy woman of today, who takes centerstage and mesmerises with her iconic presence,' Shantanu told reporters here.

Aimed at the cocktail evening wear, the Divonics collection was a blend of Indian vintage designs merged with contemporary silhouettes.

Bringing in a fluid look of causal, evening wear, which moved into formal glamour silhouettes as dresses, gowns, saris, jumpsuits, bodysuits, tops and skirts in the western genre, the Delhi-based designing duo offered a wide choice in the collection.

The fabrics selected ranged from handloom fabrics like matka silk, brocade, tussore to sheer chiffon, silks and jerseys.

The colour story was a line-up of rustic hues of grey, chocolate, beige and black while the silhouettes were either structured or draped to create feminine ensembles.
