redefined; comfort meets style
Tribune News Service Chandigarh, April 12
It is nice to see fashion feeding on change "lest one good trend corrupts the world". The Wills Spring Summer Collection 2002 draws inspiration from the element of change. The collection, unveiled at an audio-visual show on the sprawling lawns of the Chandigarh Golf Range here today, symbolised attitude in plenty. The spirit of the evening remained high, with the stylish showcasing of the latest fashion trends. Donning the collection that was introduced in three segments — work, party and leisure — were top models of the world of glamour like Dipanita Sharma, Jessie Kaur, Joey Matthews, Poonam Nath, Aparna Kumar, Reshma Bombaywalla, Jas Arora, Tarun Raghavan (of 'Hubahu' fame), Tarun Arora, Rajat Raina and Bhanujeet Sudan. Sequences of the show had been beautifully interconnected, which made it more than just another ramp show. The fashion sequences were created by Anurag Gupta on Indian locations and Bharat Sikka on foreign locations. To add it were live performance by singer Manasi Scott, who rose to fame after she doing a Hemant Trivedi show. Presenting one hit Western number after another, the zesty girl carried the crowd through the presentation. The element of work collection for the season was shown to be stretch. With its unusual blends, two-tone colours and new fabric washes, the collection was a rage with the audience. Men's shirts have been redefined with unique wrinkle-free Nisshinbo cotton, soft-cotton filafi shirts. Trousers are made of cotton nylon spandex for extra stretch. Urban safari was the theme of the leisure collection. Combining the rugged with the urbane sophisticated look, the collection laid stress on comfort, style and fun. The party collection was revealed in a whole new range of denims and fully fashioned tees. The traditional denim gets a fresh look in the new collection, as it comes in the form of crosshatch and lenim, a rare blend of Irish linen and denim. Fully fashioned tees have come in cool summer blends, beautiful crystals, and unusual ribbed patterns. With an exquisite drape and lavish feel, these make the T-shirt a fashion statement. Men have a whole range to choose from — superbly fitted blended shirts with rayon-cotton-lycra or stretch part shirts, that can be combined with elegant wrinkle-free linen club pants or stretch evening pants.

The show was about the product image and superb accessorising that made a complete fashion statement.
