A NIGHT FOR THE FASHION SAVVY
VOOTOO
Entertainment is organising the second edition of the Trendsetters
Fashion Show on March 22. The fashion event will feature exclusive
designs for the year 2013. This annual event showcases collections by
some of the country’s most sought after designers. This year, 30 models
including high-profile showstoppers such as Malvika Shubba, Jharana
Bajracharya, Priyanka Karki and Shahana Bajracharya, will be walking the
runway, wearing designer pieces from 10 highend Nepali brands. Aira,
Astik Designs, Bishow Gautam, Crossroads Apparel, Gabi, House of
fashion, Now, Odhani, Suruchira and Tenzin Tseten Bhutia Creations will
be unveiling their collections on Friday’s event. The first Trendsetters
show was organised in September of 2012. Ashutosh Shrestha of Vootoo
Entertainment says they’ve worked on making this edition of the fashion
celebration bigger and better than the previous one. “We received a lot
of feedback from audience members the last time we organised the event,”
he says. “The ramp is going to be much larger than it was the last
time, and the opening act too is going to be something to look forward
to. We will have very special guests making presentations this time
around.” The event is not only an opportunity for the fashion savvy to
get to see some of the most beautiful clothes made by reputed Nepali
designers, but is also a platform for the designers themselves to
present their works. Of the 10 design houses presenting at Trendsetters,
Suruchira and Now are relatively new ones. “Fashion shows in Nepal
should not be limited well-established designers,” says Shrestha.
“Aspiring fashion designers also need to be given a platform especially
since they have only limited opportunity to display their work.”
Shrestha also says that the Trendsetters event encourages newer models
to step on the ramp. This is important in an industry which has, in the
organiser’s own words, a limited number of models to choose from. Voot
Entertainment itself hires newer faces in the hopes of pushing the
fashion industry here towards a more positive direction. The
Trendsetters Fashion Show will take place at the Hotel de l’ Annapurna,
Durbarmarg. The event begins at 7pm tonight
