“Ak-Ok’s collection consists of white cotton, prints in silk, and handmade shiboris, with the peeping in of pieces of denim casually. Uneven hems, the use of soft fabric manipulations in chiffon, and embroidery in various forms make the collection almost intangible. The use of 3D floral shapes, fluidity in tailoring, contrasting with structure sometimes, appearances of yellows and reds, and the use of black, indigo and emerald, keeps the colour palette surprising. From draped dresses to pajama sets, the collection features innovative ways of draping with a splash of colours on fluid silhouettes.”, was converted through an Instagram video from the page of LFW.

The presentation was an eye feast as Anamika Khanna’s incredibly trendy and thrilling inventiveness was seen through the range of clothing, which was set against the dancing Fountain of Joy and the foot-tapping music of DJ Kayan.

Anamika Khanna, Creative Director, AK-OK said, “I am elated to collaborate with the Fashion Design Council of India and Lakmé Fashion Week. My AK-OK story began at home and went on to travel the whimsical, yet relaxed road, making every journey its own, be it a draped dress, pyjama set, jacket, or the quintessentially timeless white kurta. The use of 3D floral shapes, fluidity in tailoring, contrasting with structure sometimes, uneven hems, use of soft fabric manipulations in chiffon, and embroidery in various forms, make this collection almost intangible. It’s an absolute dream to have presented the showcase at the Fountain of Joy at Jio World Centre. The Jio World Centre with its elegance and world-class infrastructure is changing the landscape of events held in India.”, wrote Free Press Journal.
