Fashion || Manish Arora Fall 2010





Fashion || Manish Arora Fall 2010

Manish Arora's A/W 2010 Collection did not disappoint at Paris Fashion Week and
was in fact underrated in terms of its content and the work represented.
(This was actually the first season that STYLE.com (VOGUE) acknowledged his work, shocking).
While INSPIRAT!ON loves Manish Arora, (Read Previously Posted "Waiting in Vain: Manish Arora FALL 2010??")
not enough is being said about the majestic and stimulating details of his dreamy designs.
While his work is not conventional for the"everyday women"
Plenty of design details and concepts presented would be fabulous
to incorporate in ready-to-wear produced for the masses.
The bead work is AMAZING and intricate.
Out-of-this-World silhouettes were expected and some of the custom prints,
again, channel McQueen. BUT Arora's consistency with the bright and the bold never disappoints
and the infusion of applied design work known to be popular in his homeland (India)

Other KEY details: Shisha Mirrors; Quilting, Quilted; Structural Design, Kaleidoscope Prints;
1920s Inspired Bobbed Neon Wigs.
