Actor Arjun Rampal transported fashionistas back to his supermodelling days when he hit the ramp in a black bandhgala and pants with designer Rohit Bal’s newly introduced cock motif on the opening day of the India Couture Week (ICW) here.
A colorful start of the gala event
- On the first day of the gala, organised by the Fashion Design Council of India (FDCI), Bal, known for his intricate designs
- with lotus and peacock motifs, surprised all with his new patented motif – cock.
- The show started with male and female models walking in white coloured voluminous gowns with long jackets,
- saris and bandhgala with fitted bottoms across rooms of the revamped Bikaner House here on Monday.
- The couture pieces, mostly woven into gold and silver threads, then took a colourful turn with outfits in colours like green, maroon and blue.
- The Swarovski crystals added shine to the opulent range, which was about Mughal era dressing.
- The ruler and cock motif were also appreciated by the fashionistas.
- Without revealing the details of the new motif, Bal’s spokesperson had earlier said that it would be “witty and charming”.
- The professional models soon gave way to Bal’s friends, including FDCI President Sunil Sethi, who proudly wore a white outfit with the cock motif.
- “I was ecstatic. I always thought that it would be difficult to walk on the ramp. But I didn’t need to do much.,” Sethi said after the show.
- And the hooting didn’t stop as Arjun came out giving flying kisses to the audience while Bal looked on with a smile on his face.
- Though the former supermodel nailed the walk, it seemed like there was some confusion about his exit.
- “Arjun is a pro. He had already done his round. It was perfect.
- At the end, when everyone walked in, there was no set schedule because the crowd wanted Arjun back again with Rohit,” said Sethi.
- While the first day of the 10th year of ICW ended with Anamika Khanna’s installation show and Bal’s grand presentation,
- the gala promises to exhibit more opulent collections from designers like
- Anita Dongre, Anju Modi, Gaurav Gupta, Manav Gangwani, Monisha Jaising, Rahul Mishra,
