Ace designer Samant Chauhan has been renowned for his skills in combining the beauty of his beloved Bhagalpur silk with modern silhouettes and weaving techniques. His “Ice Watch” collection was the grand presentation at the opening of the Atelier on Day One during Lakmé Fashion Week in partnership with FDCI
Elegant, yet totally functional, the inspiration of the glaciers was evident in the colour palette that moved serenely through shades of blue, white, and grey, which were delicately interspersed with bits of green and purple
Samant’s silhouettes have always bordered on feminine dreamlike shapes that scream femininity. There were swirling skirts that floated down the runway, while abstract forms and clever geometric patterns kept the artistry of the designs in firm control
"The concepts of ice and glaciers were abstract to me as a child growing up in Bhagalpur. Throughout my life, these natural elements have continued to captivate me. Thus, this collection becomes a manifestation of my preoccupation with snow,” shared Samant Chauhan
Bollywood’s hot star, Jim Sarbh stopped the very dramatic show in an all-white, layered, look. A regal floor-sweeping, flared, trench coat with fluid, impressive lapels, embellished with tonal embroidery and appliqués was worn over a mandarin collar shirt and white trousers
