Sparkling Florals and Mesmerizing Glamour: Varun Bahl Unveils ‘Inner Bloom’ Collection at India Couture Week
Glamourous, enchanting, and oh-so-feminine, India Couture Week in New Delhi is dazzling us with breathtaking fashion moments, and Varun Bahl’s show was no exception. On the evening of July 27, the designer unveiled his ‘Inner Bloom’ collection, and the runway came alive with a fusion of lush flora and fauna, adorned with opulent embellishments and mesmerizing patchwork. And guess who stole the spotlight as the showstopper? The stunning Bollywood celebrity, Bhumi Pednekar!
As Bhumi gracefully glided down the runway, all eyes were on her in a divine golden 3D floral ensemble. The glittering lehenga, with Varun Bahl’s signature floral elements, complemented her beauty flawlessly. The plunging neckline bralette added a touch of allure, while the fit and flare lehenga skirt accentuated her curves, featuring a thigh-high slit that exuded confidence and glamour. But the pièce de résistance was undoubtedly the long trail at the back of the lehenga, elevating the look to a whole new level of elegance.
In ‘Inner Bloom,’ Varun Bahl showcased an exquisite play with florals, exploring prints, beading, and bold 3D appliqués. While traditional silhouettes like sarees exuded timeless elegance, the collection also flaunted experimental styles, embracing traditional craft techniques to craft avant-garde bubble dresses and sleek gowns that left us in awe.
Not to be outdone, menswear was equally captivating, with a delicate yet robust aesthetic. Sheer black textiles intertwined with oversized floral prints adorned black suits and traditional sets, creating an aura of mysterious charm.
Adding further sparkle and glamour to the already fabulous creations, Shri Paramani Jewels partnered as the jewelry sponsor, offering a selection of tactile and earthy ornaments that truly elevated the entire look.
India Couture Week, spanning from July 25 to August 2, is the ultimate extravaganza of fashion, and the main venue, the Taj Palace, has witnessed numerous unforgettable moments. The fashion shows have also embraced the digital era, with online streaming enabling the public to witness the enchanting displays, keeping up with the trend that gained popularity during the pandemic.
With Varun Bahl’s ‘Inner Bloom’ collection, the runway has bloomed into a garden of fashion dreams, where florals and glitz weave their magic, leaving us spellbound with each breathtaking step.
