In a mood to celebrate: Here’s JJ Valaya and Alpana-Neeraj’s Grand Finale collection

Fashion went fun and festive as the five-day runway fiesta came to a close on Sunday.

All of us owe our present, and our future, to our mentors. Taking this thought forward, the Fashion Design Council of India rolled out a gold-laced carpet (keeping the festive mood in mind) for the Grand Finale of Amazon India Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2017. JJ Valaya’s collection, Ranas of Kachchh, came together with designer duo Alpana-Neeraj’s signature design aesthetics to create designs that were a curious mix of opposites. Alpana, who has been Valaya’s student for over five years, said that while creating the varied looks was definitely a challenge, the over-all experience, was unmatched. Before the finale took over, the fashion week also saw a focus on two oft neglected fashion realms: accessories, and, menswear, giving the audience a lot of inspiration to take home. Check out some of the looks we loved, as the fashion week came to a close.

Conceived as a guru-shishiya synergy, the Grand Finale brought together the master JJ Valaya signature style amalgamated with aesthetics of designer duo Alpana and Neeraj.

The menswear collection was grandeur and experimentative.

The show started off with a dance performance.
