Vogue India decodes LFW's Beauty Trends: Day 1

There were collections and there was the presentation. Beauty took centre stage at the Lakme Fashion Week on day one with bold colors, nude lips and Amy Winehouse-inspired updos. A look at our favorite shows that rocked the beauty boat.

Krishna Mehta

Buffed up in nudes, Krishna Mehta’s show was subtle elegance and grace. The makeup was all about chiseled bones, immaculate eyes with a hint of blue and green and an Amy Winehouse-inspired beehive updo. The idea was to enhance the face without going overboard with colors.

Pragya and Megha for Gen Next

If there was an award for innovative hair pieces, it would definitely have gone to the newest mother-daughter designer duo, Pragya and Megha Samor. The hair was wrapped up in a tight bun and the straw hair pieces in neon colors added more than just glamour to the whole outfit. Add an orange lip and its fun all the way.

Frome by Soumitra

It was Bengali elegance and simplicity at Soumitra Mondal with laid back waves and a middle parting. The makeup was flawless, the eyes super sharp and winged while the cheekbones dabbed on a bit more bronzer.

Manish Arora

Think Katy Perry on acid, Manish Arora’s shine and sparkle at the Lakme fashion Week was aspirational beauty at its best. Dramatic eyes, sparkly lips and multi-colored lashes – the psychedelic look can be incorporated into your day if you could just stick to one element instead of going all out. Stick to the lips or the eyes, never do both.
