Lakme Fashion Week in association with FDCI celebrated Sustainable Fashion Day on the third day. Creating awareness through an array of silhouettes, drapes and color palettes, the runway was all about responsible fashion.
Actors Tripti Dimri and Rahul Bose enthusiastically showcased TENCEL™ x Satya Paul by Rajesh Pratap Singh’s collection.

The main emphasis of Cocccon’s latest collection Abundant Paradise was on organically produced peace silk, where silkworms are allowed to transform into beautiful butterflies. Women’s wear featured exceptional 3D, origami-like detailing on sleeves, trousers and asymmetric dresses.

With kantha-embroidered details like natural silk, merino wool, tussar silk, fabrics like appliqués, shibori and handblocks, Eka by Reena Singh’s collection was about living a slow life. The sustainable collection drew inspiration from the sublime countryside.
