Playful prints and colours are at the focus of this season’s collection and all designs are very versatile and can be easily dressed up or down.” COLOUR ME RIGHT As far as the colour palette is concerned, other than the inspiration from the hues surrounding us, Mallika says, “Aqua blue, firelight red, mellow yellow, bride jade and purple dusk are colours, colour blocking a trend that tops it all, can’t be left behind. There are some tips these designers share. While Reby says, “It is easier to colour block the same tones of colour than it is to colour block contrasting colours. In the same family of colours, go for a lighter and darker version to colour block.” However, Pallavi has a pro-tip in colour blocking with prints. “It’s ideal to team prints it with a solid. While on the other hand, if experimenting with strong colours, it’s beautiful to team them with lace and femme crop tops.” ALL FOR ACCESSORIES No look is complete without accessories and the best way to accessorise is to first find a focal point of dressing, explains Pallavi. “For instance, if we are doing solids and only silhouettes, then it’s best to team it with a statement accessory like a big necklace, or large statement earrings/rings. If the outfit is the focal point, like a nice ruffle blouse or maybe big mamma jeans, then it’s nice to team them with accessories that help complete the look, like big large hoops, a beautiful waist bag and nice shoes to go with depending on the occasion.” Kapil Sharma spotted on a wheelchair at airport AYUSHMANN KHURRANA WITH ANUBHAV SINHA Watch out for Joshua Anubhav Sinha’s second collaboration with Ayshmann Khurrana, Anek, will be out in cinema halls on September 17.
