Tarun Tahiliani brings 'lightness' to Indian bridal wear

New Delhi:  Fashion designer Tarun Tahiliani's finale show at the India Bridal Fashion Week (IBFW), which saw model-actress Lisa Haydon walk the ramp thrice, focused on "lightness" that was still laden with the weight of



The showstopper, Lisa Haydon, vouched for the lightness of her final ensemble despite the fact that it looked heavy.

"I would only want to wear something as elegant and beautiful as this on my wedding. And while Tarun keeps saying 'lightness', I feel the whole collection has not compromised on the work, but it is really light," she said of her outfit, which looked heavily embellished.

Clothes apart, the audience was treated to a visual delight of a fluid performance by performers from the Attakalari Centre for Movement Arts. The performers were fluid and set the mood for the show, but many were left wondering if there was a story to it, as they kept returning to the stage.

But Tahiliani told IANS: "The story (in my presentation) is always my clothes."

Just as the skeleton of a mansion, the performance was symbolic too. It was a blend of rituals and ceremonies that constitute Indian marriage tradition.

"The dancers were symbolic of the lightness and fluidity of the drapes. It's a new philosphy of our design studio.
