Naeem Khan at LFW 2013

By some miracle I managed to get passes for Naeem Khan's first ever show in Mumbai!

The NYC based designer, who has dressed the likes of Michelle Obama. Beyonce and Leighton Meester, was born in Mumbai. His work consists of dramatic and heavily embellished gowns and dresses best suited for the red carpet. The collection he showed at LFW was the same as the one seen at New York Fashion Week earlier this year.

The clothes were beautiful and intricately embroidered. He used velvet, embellishments, embroidery and screen printing. The silhouettes were either full skirts or slinky gowns. The silk pants and skirt gown really caught my eye. As did the champagne skirt with a fully embellished top.The embellishments glittered magically under the lights. It was all very dramatic and awe-inspiring. He did not use a celebrity show stopper but there was enough glitterati on the front row.
