Pink city fashion

  The original fashion capital of the country, Jaipur hosted the Rajasthan Fashion Week from the May 24 to 26, bringing together 30 Indian and international designers to showcase their immaculate creations.

Designer Vikram Phadnis put a spectacular ending to the fashion fete displaying his beautiful creations of lehengas, saris, sherwanis and fusionwear. Adding to the glamorous display of clothes was actress Raima Sen who did the showstopping act for the designer.

Promoting their film Rowdy Rathore, actors Akshay Kumar and Sonakshi Sinha were spotted at the fashion week, too, presenting their "Rowdy" line of clothes.

Showing that cricket and fashion are no strangers, not just models and Bollywood celebs but cricketers Pankaj Singh, Ashok Maneria and Dishant Yagnik from the IPL team Rajasthan Royals also walked the ramp for designer Rohit Kamra.

While Delhi and Mumbai have completely diverse fashion sensibilities, Jaipur saw a mix of both the fashion capitals.

With lots of interesting designs and intricate detailing, the designers displayed everything from floral maxi gowns, heavy embroidered lehengas to flowy kaftans, anarkalis and much more.

With all the glamour and entertainment just like any other fashion week, this one also had its share of controversies and confusions. From the organisers facing legal problems over using the name 'Rajasthan Fashion Week' illegally to the opening designers Rahul- Gunjan backing out at the last minute, the event saw it all.

However, for a start-up event such as this, the fashion week fared well in terms of participating designers, vivid creations, Bollywood glamour and the gossip, of course.
