#SamsungMeetsFashion at Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week
// By Devina

It's that time of the year when I am out of my home, taking pictures and 'dressing up' every single day for extended series of fashion show(s) at The Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week. This time my stint at the fashion week was an altogether different experience for a lot of reasons that I will be sharing in the upcoming posts. Day 1 I was invited by Samsung India to be a part of their new collaboration with ace designer Manish Arora. His #SamsungMeetsFashion collection for Samsung India clearly proves that things need not be only functional but can also be fashionable! To know what I am really trying to say, read on...





In my candid conversation with Manish Arora, he highlighted that he loved the original designs of Samsung refrigerators & washing machines and wanted to incorporate the same in his clothing range. I loved the emerald hues and chains and oh did I tell you guys, Manish ended up confessing that he is obsessed with chains!


Manish Arora, like a true artist explained all the why's and how's of his collection. He was extremely upbeat about the patterns that Samsung refrigerators had. From the geometric patterns to bright colors to gloss, all of this reflected in this collection. I am a big fan of sequins and frills and this collection was an absolute hit fr me.



Here I am posing in front of few of my favorite ensembles from #SamsungMeetsFashion collection. I wish I could take back home this metallic fridge and this dress (image above), it was gorgeous! And yes, I am wearing black lace dress from #Blogshop and Kate Moss embellished jacket for Mango! Shoes & accessories c/o Aldo.

For the coming months, Manish's style advice includes statement jewelry, chains, bling and a nice pop of colour in everyone's outfit of the day!
