INIFD Collection At Lakme Fashion Week’13

After the opening show of Manish Malhotra's collection at the Lakme Fashion Week 2013, it was obvious that we will see the best of winter fashion in this week. So from Manish Malhotra's Indian weaves and majestic lehengas, we go straight to modern Western winter wear. INIFD collection was full of heavy winter clothes. Over-sized coats, jackets and sweaters were showcased in the Gen Next Show at the Lakme Fashion Week 2013.

The INIFD collection was truly Western in temperament. The blazers were all in beige, browns and blacks. There were also a few monochrome creations that added a touch of glamour to the ramp of LFW 2013. But apart from the blacks and beiges, there was a smattering of colours in the INIFD collection as well. There were a few boho-chic multi-coloured outfits to make things colourful in the drab winters.

Here are some select deisgns from the INIFD collection at Lakme FashioN Week 2013.
