So Lakme Fashion Week Summer/Resort 2015 is taking place from 18-22 March in Mumbai. Want to know who’s the Grand Finale designer this year? It is none other than Kolkata’s very own Anamika Khanna and I was invited to her flagship store in the city couple of days back for the unveiling of ‘Sculpt’, Lakme’s biggest beauty statement for Summer/Resort 2015. A part of Lakme Fashion Week’s 15 year celebrations, the event marked the opening of a 5 day multi-city tour and it started with Kolkata because it is Anamika’s home town.
The event was hosted by Anamika and Purnima Lamba, Head of Innovation, Lakme. Speaking about her collection, Anamika said “This season, the grand finale of Lakme Fashion Week Summer/Resort 2015 will see an attempt to infuse Sculpt into Indian shapes. My collection will have a mix of ethereal and strong at the same time, revisiting the Indian craft. The color palette will include vivid corals and reds to bold pinks and plums; all summer brights merging with washed but intense primary colors, ivory remaining a constant and black, forever.”
Now coming to makeup. What can we expect from Lakme in summer? In line with the bold color palette, Lakme is launching the new Absolute Sculpt Studio Matte Lipsticks in 15 bright shades. These lipsticks will be priced at Rs 800 each and available from March onwards. Other than lipsticks, felt tip liners and blushes are also coming.
I saw some of the shades of the Absolute Sculpt Studio Matte Lipsticks and believe me they are awesome. Beautiful bright colors, excellent texture and pigmentation and they last really long. I’ve swatched the shades that were there and you can see how beautiful they are. I only remember the name of one shade – Plum Spell and that was the one I was instantly attracted to. Purnima said that this is also the color that Kareena Kapoor is wearing in the collection promos to be released shortly. Oh and Kareena is the face of Sculpt and will be Anamika Khanna’s show stopper at the finale.
Here are the swatches of the lipsticks I saw and a pic of me wearing Plum Spell. Isn’t the color absolutely mind blowing?
