New Delhi: Vogue Wedding Show 2014 has returned for the second time to the capital.
The three-day bridal exhibition commenced Friday with creations by Indian fashion industry's big names like Manish Malhotra, Tarun Tahiliani and JJ Valaya.
With as many as 44 participants, the wedding exhibition was visited by the niche segment of the society. Dressed in palazzos or dresses, the would-be brides and grooms were either accompanied by their friends or mothers.
While there were collections of popular fashion designers, it was Malhotra's stall that caught attention of many. A bunch of women was heard highly recommending Malhotra's work.
“Quite a few designers are here and they are suggesting how to go about it. It's nice to interact with them. We liked interacting with Manish Malhotra the most. He told me to coordinate colours and gave more styling tips too,” Sakshi Jain, 24, told IANS.
Another visitor, Palak Agarwal had similar thoughts and added: “He (Malhotra) also helped with wedding attire for men, so that was good.”
If the shoppers had a quality time interacting with the designers, the participants also had a good day in terms of business.
“It's our first exhibition in India. We do more overseas like in Hong Kong. We are getting the right crowd. Our collection, which is on display right now, focuses more on bridal wear so we have jewellery with heavy necklaces and earrings to go with them. We start from Rs.1 lakh,” Rishabh Tongya, director, Diacolor India Pvt. Ltd.
