Bhumika Sharma Captures the Festive Flavour of celebrations at LFW 2023 Delhi
Bringing her signature embroideries inspired by her rich archives to the runway, Bhumika
A mélange of classic and contemporary silhouettes came to life in luxe silk, organza and georgette.
Detailing and the use of tantalising tassels was visible on the many dazzling ensembles. On a colour card of red and ivory with neutral black, Bhumika also added earthy muted hues like sage green, tones of olive, blue and grey to liven up the stylish new floral prints.
Thread embroidery played a vital role with metallics like dori work, zardozi and the ornate French knots embroidery. The motifs highlighted by the embellishments were a medley of abstract geometric florals, borders, rhombus, lines and jaals with circular medallions and paisleys.
The accent of the silhouettes was feminine with trends and styling being given prime importance. A blend of Indian and western shapes merged seamlessly to bring an interesting fashion dimension to the collection.
Wide legged pants, elegantly cut jackets, pant suits, gorgeous lehenga, choli, dupatta, trios and the innovative Kalidar jackets teamed with floor sweeping skirts were eye-catchers. For the traditional dressers it was the 6-yard wonder- the sari, – which appeared in the traditional form or draped with capes. Co-ord sets made a striking appearance to suit the sartorial needs of the fashion-conscious wearer.
Bollywood beauty Rakul Preet Singh looked the perfect showstopper for the “Retro Love” collection created by Bhumika Sharma, as she sashayed down the runway in a luxurious, red lehenga with ornate white embroidery and worn with a matching halter choli.
Bhumika Sharma shared “In ‘Retro Love,’ we’ve rediscovered the soul of our brand, celebrating our journey and our passion. This collection is a testament to handcrafted artistry, where every
meticulous stitch reflects our commitment to quality. It’s about honouring our roots and the skilled artisans who bring these designs to life, ensuring that every piece remains a cherished classic.”
Showstopper Rakul Preet Singh shared “It was an incredible experience to walk the runway for Bhumika Sharma. I’ve always been drawn to her creations, which seamlessly blend tradition with a contemporary edge, exuding confidence and grace. Being the showstopper for Bhumika Sharma was an absolute pleasure and I will always cherish this memory.”
The “Retro Love” collection by Bhumika Sharma was all about precisely, crafted, feminine ensembles that will be timeless additions to festive wardrobes this season.
