A fashion show that brought together creations by 10 designers from Delhi, Mumbai and Calcutta, The Runway Stories, in association with The Telegraph, held on May 12 was a display of style and creativity. Curators Aakansha Manglani and Junaid Khan, who deliberately selected a warehouse on Remount Road, Alipore, as its venue, infused the entire show with a raw and edgy vibe that perfectly complemented the designs on show. From a variety of ensembles and performances, the evening was one of fashion, fun and entertainment.
Each designer presented a style that represented a unique perspective. Inspired by diverse traditional and contemporary trends in both Indian and western wear, but with a special twist that made all the difference.
