The 18-year-old fashion and lifestyle exhibition Nouveaau, in association with t2, hosted its spring edit on March 4. The one-day exhibition held at Taj Bengal saw over 60 lifestyle brands from all over India displaying their spring-summer collection of apparel, accessories and home decor items. Being a pre-Holi edit, the highlight of the display was bright and bold colours and prints, perfect for a makeover of the summer wardrobe. “It was tremendous and the footfall was very nice. All the exhibitors were very happy. We will host the next show in July or August,” said Neena Kanoi, one of the organisers. TT picks:
