After much razzmatazz and rapture, the Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week (WIFW) finally comes to an end here Monday.Actors Rahul Bose and Tabu walked the glass ramp for designer Rajesh Pratap Singh, who showcased his collection - 'Deeper Love' - as farewell to the country's biggest fashion jamboree at the Wills Lifestyle Grand Finale late Sunday.
Though the ramp shows ended Sunday, the fashion week formally ends Monday
The evening kicked off with a romantic poem recited by actor Naseeruddin Shah, with the sound of heartbeats for a background score.
Singh drew inspiration from none other than the most sublime human emotion - love. An emotion that brings to mind the hues of selflessness and sacrifice, whether for one's belief or beloved.
The collection used 1940s construction with emphasis on the shoulders and 1920s' low-waist shapes. Influences from 1920s lingerie construction were also spotted in the line.
'To be a part of the Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week Grand Finale is extremely prestigious and I am glad to be associated with a brand like Wills Lifestyle. Our association goes beyond the ramp and now my collection will be available at their stores across the country,' Singh told reporters here.
Silk, satin, leather, chiffon, georgettes and wool were treated, pleated, layered and embellished with patchwork and stitch patterns to come up with a whole range of men's and women's wear.
Colours ranging from black, grey, pink and shades of red were a part of the palette. The line offers straight-fit pants, tooth-short jackets, long coats, short dresses, shirtdresses, flared and straight skirts of varied lengths, tunics and cocktail dresses.
The menswear range went from coats, jackets and shirts to flared and straight-fit trousers. The collection was accessorised with stockings and elbow length leather gloves.
