Fashion WEAK!

Life mein bohut kuch 1st time hota hai re mamu……. MunnaBhai’s dialogues were buzzing in my ears as I walked past a few Delhi socialites!
Great cars, dangerous necklines, air smooching and a lot of 377 lovers……… this was my first expression of the first ever Men’s fashion week The Van Heusen Men’s Fashion Week!
Another S Size dream of mine came into reality as I walked into the Grand Hotel in Vasant Kunj, New Delhi.
“You guys from NDTV?” I was brought back to the present by one of the volunteers out there.
Frankly speaking, this NDTV ID card of mine has already started talking me to places where my IT card would never have imagined taking to (unless I became Nandan Nilekani part –II)! The volunteers took us to our designated seats where we were welcomed by Mr. Sunil Sethy (President FDCI).
Then the show began; skinny girls and the muscular men walked down the ramp with designer glasses and funny clothing (they literally were!).There were well known models like Jesse Randhawa, Tapur Chatterjee and Ankur Bedi (I came to know all these names on that day itself, thanks to all my lady colleagues!). The showstopper was the famous model turn actor Muzzamil Ebrahim (has acted in some movie named Dhoka!)
The show was ok…..though everyone else just loved it……. I got bored after 15 minutes. Overall a great experience…..but one thing I noticed. I was perhaps the only person not decked up for the occasion…..a jeans and a shirt. Among the gelled hairs and summer jackets and checkered trousers, my sense of fashion was definitely WEAK!

  1. A way-off comment from a friend just came to my mind. We were in an Indian Ocean show at the Park, when a lady came up with a "dangerous neckline". The friend, quite high after his complimentary Smirnoffs, took a "deep" look at her, sighed and said{most audibly}, "Sala, ekata kochi pyatha, singh-lyaj sudhdhu dhuke jaabe". :P

    Needless to say, we exited at the next fortune moment!
