Hyderabad designer dazzles in London

City-based fashion designer Althea Krishna along with her fellow from Nagpur, Abha Chaudhary took London by storm at the first day of the ‘India Fashion Week London’.

Both designers are a discovery by 6Degree and have impressed audience at their show, which was held on October 15. The stage gives upcoming creations a platform to shine.

Althea grabbed eyeballs by showcasing her effervescent collection ‘Brazaleta’, inspired by the poem ‘Bangle Sellers’ by the Nightingale of India, Sarojini Naidu.

Flared lehengas with off-shoulder blouses and jackets with zardosi hand-embellishments were a big hit with the audience.

“Even though I have been a part of a few fashion shows like the Mysore Fashion Week, the chance to showcase my creations at the prestigious India Fashion Week London was a dream come true,” she said after the show.

Abha’s opulent collection ‘Suhaag’ represented a rare sense of rich heritage and originality amalgamated with modern silhouettes that the brides of today's generation yearn for.
