PFDC L’Oréal Paris Bridal Week Day-1 was opened by Karma Red, led by design director Maheen Kardar Ali who showcased their bridal collection titled “Shehzadi Rang Aur Samarkand Ki Rani”. ‘Shehzadi Rang Aur Samarkand Ki Rani’ consisted of two capsules collections setting the Fall/Winter 2015-16 mood of the Karma Red Atelier as exquisite, feminine and dramatic. Shehzadi Rang is a bold, bright, beautiful, firecracker sexy, tongue in cheek flirty, color mad collection for the desi diva whereas Samarkand Ki Rani is romantic, pure glamor and quintessential in essence. This season Karma Red is about intense luminous color, traditional handicraft, modern application, gota, gold embellishments inspired by Karma’s signature rose with detailed finishing and statement silhouettes on heritage inspired vintage-esque pieces. The emphasis was on sheer and tailored fabric with a modern play on cool separate linings and camisoles, closures and tassels. Handcrafted organza, tissue and net in pure cranberry, violets, ink, chartreuse, tangerine, chalk white and blood rouge set the tone for a strong, ethnic, sensual, classic Karma aesthetic this winter.
