Women from Dholka walk on Lakme Fashion Week ramp

MumbaiL Women from Dholka near Ahmedabad were on the ramp of Lakme Fashion Week in Mumbai last evening. They had teamed up with designer Soham Dave to come with a ‘The Black Machine’ series of dresses inspired by black Usha sewing paddle machine that they use.

The focus of the garments was created with surfaces and interesting textures on the black lock stitch machine. Staying true to a basic colour story of only black and white with minute detailing, the sustainable designs and fabrics were ideal to be used for the black paddled machine. Sack dresses, batwing-sleeved mini, bell-sleeved dresses, tunic with a flared skirt and asymmetric top with cigarette pants were a great offering in the negative/positive theme. The final kurta with a flared midi skirt was just right for the summer festive times with fun on the agenda.
