MANISH ARORA: SPRING PFW 2011- Color me, RAINBOW!

Manish Arora's kitschy couture has left the Paris Fashion Week Spring 2011 spelbound. A Mumbai based designer, Arora's design philosophy is from his heart, someone famous for his eclectic use of colours, embellishments and fabrics, his works speak .....'Indianess'.

Excitement levels hit the roof at the opening of Arora's collection, models in Baroque metallic gladiator outfits dominated the runway, but looking up-close the silhouette, it's more essentially Indian in spirit than some accusation that his collection is 'La Gaga goin' gaga!

Manish Arora does'nt need to impress other designers and critics, and he is not trying so...

Arora’s fantasy land collections often leave one in a frenzy, getting a hold of his multicoloured and metallic pumps somehow; they will be vintage treasures in years to come.

PACO RABANNE Summer 2012-Manish Arora on Spotlight

Manish Arora, the Delhi -based fashion designer did an astonishing debut as the new creative director at Paco Rabanne's Spring/Summer 2012 last Tueday in Paris. The iconic brand was brought back to life in the fashion stratosphere with Arora's new futuristic designs that were outrageous yet adorable.  Dresses were shimmering with  colors and shining from the depths of their silvered surfaces as Arora brought Paco Rabanne from 60's to the 21st century.

As the models descended from metallic elevators, Manish Arora began to take over and was in full control. His spikey dresses made from fiber optics, winged shoulder dresses clearly manifested the new Paco Rabanne's future visions and styles. Second skin sheath dresses with pumped-up hips, catsuits with metal coils and chains, sculptural fabrics surely will garner critical praises.

But this is Manish Arora's runway....his moments, and wearability is simply besides the point.
