Ideas to dazzle in night-sky inspired fashion
We've just about said goodbye to the 18th edition of the India Couture Week but there's some hangover in terms of the colours that shone brilliantly through the week-long affair. While there was a generous sprinkling of reds – per usual – the colour palette that caught our eye was of deep purples, shimmering blacks, and midnight blues. Colours one naturally associates with the night sky. Designer Amit Aggarwal's imaginative collection, Arcanum, was a palette of metallic greens, blues and blacks, and Rahul Mishra's collection sparkled like stars you'd see on a clear night. Another element that stood out among all the lehengas and sherwanis was of structured design that lent clothes a certain edginess that's hard to ignore. Taking off from these two ideas, Lounge's compilation for the week shows you how to dazzle in structured fashion that's awash in dreamy shades of the night sky. THE BIG CURVE The distinctive flap in this Loewe bag juxtaposed with a curved body lends definition to this soft, lightweight handbag from Loewe. Besides, the combination of deep burgundy and the gold of the statement donut chain make it an accessory you want to carry around town when the night is still young. Available on ₹2.75 lakh. PURPLE FLAIR This purple off-the-shoulder gown from label Amit Aggarwal instantly conjures up images of the twilight sky lit up in ethereal purple shades. Handcrafted using mineral jersey and butterfly net, the floor-skimming dress features a flared metallic skirt. The sculpted silhouette of the dress that starts off sharp and ends with that generous flair is another reason why it's a winner. Available on ₹2.95 lakh. ABSTRACT CUT Handcrafted in structured crepe, this sculpted jacket from Bloni gets its signature look from the monochrome bleed effect achieved through tie-dye. While the defined shoulders lend an element of assertiveness, the pattern looks like something born from the moon light and darkness bleeding into each other. Available on ₹79,000. STING ENERGY This jellyfish-shaped pendant from Afew Rahul Mishra is gilded and hammered in golden recycled brass and adorned with pearl and ball chains. The solidity of the design makes it a statement accessory that would go well with dresses in dark shades like black, deep green, purple or plum red. Available on ₹17,900. WING AWAY This black mini dress from label Pankaj & Nidhi features sculpted wing sleeves that make it look a tad alien-esque and we are here for it. The halterneck dress is adorned all over with intricate cutdana work and all we want to say is, 'yes, give us LBDs that are bold and outré". Available on ₹1.58 lakh. FLAPPER GIRL This Oscar de la Renta dress seems like it walked straight out of a flapper era party. The statement cocktail dress features all-over gold paillette embroidery and velvet shoulder straps. The ombre effect where the paillettes go from bright gold to chocolate reminds you of the setting sun's effect on the skies. Available on ₹3.35 lakh. BE A LI'L EXTRA Black with a touch of blue, here are derby shoes for the next cool do. The 'Obliq' derby shoes by indie label Jeetinder Sandhu are crafted from semigloss leather and feature an extended leather midsole with handknit strap detailing. Shoes that come with a little extra elemental drama… what's not to love? Available on ₹22,500. POWER FIT Buckle up and make them power moves with this Balmain leather jacket. While the structured shoulders are a signature of the label, the black jacket comes with a whole list of features including appliqué patch pockets, straight cuffs, leather-covered buttons, and a detachable belt with a deliciously bright gold buckle. Available on ₹4.37 lakh.

Tamannaah Bhatia Experiments With High-Fashion Athleisure In A Red Co-Ord Set
Last Updated: For her appearance at Son Of Sardaar 2 screening, Tamannaah Bhatia turned heads in a red top and skirt from Jacquemus x Nike collection. At the screening of Son Of Sardaar 2 and Mrunal Thakur's birthday celebration, Tamannaah Bhatia made a bold sartorial statement that fused high fashion with sport-luxe edge. Dressed in pieces from the much-talked-about Jacquemus x Nike collaboration, her look was anything but predictable, and the kind of directional fashion move we rarely see off the runway. At the core of Tamannaah Bhatia 's outfit was a maxi-length technical skirt from the Jacquemus x Nike line. Designed with a high waist and a sharply dipped waistband, the skirt balanced architectural detailing with athletic functionality. A visible front zipper and side-button detail added a deconstructed twist, offering versatility in how the piece could be worn or styled. It was bold, fashion-forward, and unapologetically cool. Decoding Tamanaah Bhatia's Athleisure Meets Luxury Look Tamannaah paired the skirt with the capsule's signature minimal sports bra, featuring slender adjustable straps, a back clasp closure, and a small metallic Swoosh logo: clean, simple, and flattering. To soften the look, she added a sheer white button-down shirt, layered loosely for a touch of breezy femininity. The overall intention seemed to be a balance between sharp, technical lines and soft ease. Just when the look was hitting its stride, Tamannaah took it a notch higher with a Celine camo-print shoulder bag. The piece, while covetable on its own, went well with the otherwise streamlined monochrome palette. The Jacquemus x Nike collaboration isn't for the faint-hearted; it's built for risk-takers, and she proved she's game to play. In an era where many celebs still default to safe glam, Tamannaah's experimental streak feels exciting. top videos View all Tamanaah Bhatia's Projects On the work front, Tamannaah Bhatia was last seen in Odela 2.
