KRITIKA – The Display of outfits by its future FASHIONISTAS!

The students of Fashion & Lifestyle Design Department at IAM, Gurgaon organized a display of outfits on 21st & 22nd December 2010 at Lynx 1, Apparel House, Gurgaon. The hard work of these future designers was culminated as “Kritika”, an exhibition of beautiful silhouette transformed into apparel for the audience to observe and experience. These budding fashionistas’ had envisioned numerous themes, converting their vision of innovative designs into appealing garments. Students showcased their efforts in a well defined personal space to recreate their individual mood boards, color palettes and an ambience befitting the attractive, graceful, zany clothing which were a stamp of these young individuals. Fire, earth, water, air, all the elements of nature formed the part of theme just as experimenting with feelings and emotions, various colors, their shades and hues brought the beauty of the attire meant to appeal to people of all age groups, ethnicities and fashion milieu.
