FDCI Showcase Shahab Durazi A Retrospective at Lakmé Fashion Week in partnership with FDCI. Shahdab Durazi's collection transcends season, gender and genre and attempts to address the ever-evolving role of style and elegance in a fashion system that thrives on rapid change. The collection endorses slow fashion and the relevance of timelessness in a capsule collection that defies the concept of trends and promotes classic couture with contemporary nuances. It has a vast ensemble of silhouettes ranging from tailored separates and evening gowns to soft blouses, impeccably cut jackets and boleros and sharply tailored pants for both men and women. The collection is very strong on tailoring, using couture techniques to achieve a sense of balance and proportion. The embellishments are refined, confined to detailed floral filigree work or abstract textures to create an illusion of sorts.There is a sense of nostalgia with pieces reminiscent of the 40s and 50s: an era known for its vintage chic. The collection also has an assortment of complementing accessories such as hand embroidered clutch bags, lace collars and cuffs, envelope briefcases and pearl encrusted bow clips. Men’s coats are structured in rich wools to further enhance the shape of couture cuts and stark tailoring. Men’s shirts display beautiful hand embroidered beaded yokes while the scarves are equally rich, drawing attention to the use of accessories to dress up a simple look for an evening out. @shahdabduraziofficia
