Krishna Consciousness enlightens fashion week
The simplest things in life are also perhaps the nicest. Krishna Mehta's collection was effortless, light as froth, playful and refreshing. Emphasis was paid on good fits and finish, rather than complex and fussy designs.

Mehta presented lines of casual wear in form of skirts and blouses, dresses, jeans and kaftans. The soft chiffon skirts were composed of layers of milkshake white and strawberry pink, and teamed with polka dot printed halter blouses and shirts. Blouses with patched feather edged ribbons in pink/ beige/ white were sweet and wearable. A more formal variation was the line of tone on tone chikankari embroidered knee length skirts, long kurtas with long side slits, and halter blouses in colours of milk, baby pink, powder blue, and fuchsia.
The trendy denim wear in form of jeans - with straight lengths/ tight draw string hems/ and ruching had excellent shapes that made it sexy in the way denim wear is expected to be.
Evening options came in form of off shoulder dresses, blouses and skirts with frayed ribbon patchwork in berry, pink and black, with silver streaks running down their length. The final line was radically different from all the others by Mehta. It consisted of brightly coloured tie-dyed chiffons in red-orange, black-white, blue-white, and browns, that were crafted into long easy kaftans with matching inner slips that accommodated the oversized necklines, which were embroidered in silver.
Simple, sweet and feminine, Krishna Mehta's prêt line was a refreshing delight.
