Tarun Tahiliani
At Lakmé Fashion Week 2025, Tarun Tahiliani didn’t just present clothes — he unveiled a living, breathing universe of India reborn in modernity. His runway felt like a quiet revolution, where centuries-old craft loosened its shoulders, exhaled, and slipped into silhouettes that moved with the rhythm of today.
Shantnu & Nikhil
Shantnu & Nikhil’s “Velora” lit up Lakmé Fashion Week 2025 with a commanding all-womenswear showcase—their first on the Indian runway. In a palette of power reds, inky blacks, and molten silvers, Velora shimmered with pearls, crystals, and metallic accents—an unmistakable nod to unapologetic allure. The designers call it their “Red-Carpet Ode to Unapologetic Glamour,” a manifesto for the modern woman who leads with presence.
