The catwalk is the mark for any new inspiring collection and budding designer, during the diversity of shows now platformed in London from Indian Premier Fashion Week and bridal shows hitting the city in the coming new year we can gaze the new textures, cuts and fabrics. The mainstream catwalks feature bold patterns, leopards, lace and long shirt dress garments, easy wear pieces always come through day work wear to matching sophisticated jewellery and pearls for a night out.
Today Asian women try both and love the fact they can dress in comfort and trends setters for the coming party season. As the festive season is sparkled already with high neck cuts and black less dresses, our women tend to take the trend and make it their own by covering in chic designs whilst appreciating the details on the high street. Women do not fear covering and styling, including accessories; hijab’s, jilbab’s and Asian churidar suits twist fashion with brighter sequinned and glitter crystals featured on them.
