ATSU SEKHOSE

Spring Summer 2013 

FOR 

WILLS LIFESTYLE INDIA FASHION WEEK
SS COLLECTION 2013 


Bringing to fore his love for North East is Atsu Sekhose’s Spring Summer 2013 collection.  The designer has gravitated towards the tribes of North East as the main inspiration this season. Having his roots in Nagaland, he has been chosen by the Ministry of Textiles to present a collection that is evocative of the northeastern culture.

His strength as a mixologist comes through in the constructions made of hand woven fabrics moulded into a collection inspired by American sportswear.  Every look emphasizes the honed body through Naga fabrics like cotton and silk, woven by 30 underprivileged women from a women’s weaving organization - VITOLE and Assamese Silk exclusively woven by Assamese weavers.  The contemporary collection opens with shorts, parka jackets, trench jackets, trousers and shirts making way for dresses and evening gowns. Having a pulsating sense of color, Atsu has meticulously chosen shades of reds, cobalt blue, off white and beige married to black.

Each and every detail has been well examined to go along with the collection, hence rejuvenating the beauty, style, art, craft, music and richness of North East.

Primarily known for his chic, feminine and understated clothing Atsu’s line has evolved into a complete ready-to-wear collection, which firmly holds his signature style and modern adaptation to classic silhouettes.



FIAMA DI WILLS 
PRESENTS

RANNA GILL

Spring Summer 2013 

FOR 

WILLS LIFESTYLE INDIA FASHION WEEK
SS COLLECTION 2013 



Ranna Gill has sustained a combination of style and substance that makes all her collections so stunning. The designer has gravitated toward nature as her chief inspiration for Spring Summer 2013 and her collection presented by Fiama Di Wills is evocative of a sculpture garden... perhaps her own personal Garden of Eden. It made for a surreal fantasy and you may find yourself hankering for some of the sensuous feminine forms sheathed in silk jerseys and silk georgettes and in-house woven brocade.  Her collection is a mélange of flora and fauna. There are orchids and birds of Paradise and natural locations. It has worked well for the designer who has graduated into a force to be reckoned with in the womenswear world.

Ranna Gill is chockablock with ideas. She has always favored sparkle and trimmings and here too it is achieved in part by detachable embellishments (sequined animals and birds or a crystal neckpiece that appears to be a part of the garment but is removable) and in part by sequins. There is an absorption and reimagining of some of her signature styles and indomitably glamorous spirit in this decadent collection. The beautifully woven maxis and kaftans, Jersey dresses and tunics and skirts indicate a move toward easier Seventies styles and further evidence of this drift is in the tie-dye looks which are a little nostalgic though the shibori patterns of flora and fauna feel modern. These are the pieces that any girl would love to put on and never take off!
