LFW Winter/Festive 2012 | Yogesh Chaudhary recreates the fashion of the American Retro

Giving his collection an unconventional title “Miss Pac-in District”, Yogesh Chaudhary recreated the fashion of the American Retro era bringing in hints of the 20’s, 50’s and 80’s fashion moments at Lakmé Fashion Week Winter/Festive 2012.

 

Going for a colour palette starting with cherry red, then onto canary yellow and electric blue, Yogesh’s prints were inspired by the Ms Pac-man game. Block printing, beadwork, digital printing and knitted jacquards highlighted the wonderful line of separates that included skirts, Tees, trousers, jackets, blouses, trenches, saris and even swim wear. Adding on a range of knitted dresses and cardigans, Yogesh ensured that the silhouettes were lean, sexy but trendy. A hint of gold gotta work gave interesting touches to the sari made from the Maheshwari fabric which was given unconventional treatment.

 

The Pac man print appeared in varied colours and added a quirky touch to the jumpsuits and dresses. Giving a new twist to the sari and choli combo, Yogesh had three entries with two tone prints and teamed them with comfy loose blouson style jersey blouses. The overall look represented relaxed fun wear, which had large doses of innovative styling.

 

Bringing forth a clever mix of Indian and western embellishments, inspirations and retro prints, Yogesh Chaudhary created his distinct individualistic trend for the Winter/Festive 2012 season.
