Tacoma-based fashionistas are watching India closely as Lakme Fashion Week approaches. The Puget Sound region now hosts thousands of foreign workers, and events back home are very important to many of them. One woman, a native of India who was shopping at Tacoma Mall and asked to remain anonymous, sums it up well: "India has been behind the world in many things, especially fashion. It is time for us to make a comeback."
Founded in 2000, Lakme Fashion Week's mission is to: "Redefine the future of fashion and Integrate India into the global fashion world." All eyes will be on Mumbai for the 4-day event, with designers showcasing their summer and fall fashions on some of the most beautiful women in India.
The Hindustan Times is reporting today that "Gauri and Nainika Karan, who have designed for actors Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Deepika Padukone" may be the designers chosen for the grand finale.
