Amit Aggarwal stuns us yet again.
Amit Aggarwal unveiled his collection ‘Antevorta’ at the Hyundai India Couture Week, inspired by the Roman Goddess of the future. ‘Antevorta’ symbolises the connection between time and the universe. The collection intricately weaves philosophical, mythological, religious, scientific, and cosmological influences into a temporal narrative.
The set had a huge installation with metallic wires on the runway, and the music was also dark and eerie. Both these elements added to the mystical vibe of the place.
The designer reiterates his love for drama through the otherworldly silhouettes throughout the collection.
The colour palette included electric blue, pinks, reds, gold, silver, and black. Dramatic, structured silhouettes and metallics took centre stage.
One look had a cocoon silhouette, similar to the Balenciaga cocoon, but much more exaggerated. Another stand-out look was a black men’s suit with red dripping from the shoulders. While Amit’s signatures were on full display, we also saw some new textiles. It was essentially an amalgamation of his signatures and stuff that he doesn’t usually do. The styling added to the otherworldliness of the looks, with elements like dramatic red shimmer lipstick, exaggerated hairstyles and over-the-top headgears peppered throughout the collection.
It’ll be interesting to see brides unleash their avant-garde side with Amit Aggarwal this season.
