Lakme Fashion Week Festive 2016;supports plus-size Models!

Mumbai: The forthcoming winter-festive edition of Lakme Fashion Week (LFW) will host the first ever plus-size model hunt for males and females, curated by designer Shilpa Chavan of Little Shilpa in association with the plus-size store, aLL.

This plus-size show will be a part of the Lakme Fashion Week Winter/Festive 2016 to be held at The St. Regis, Mumbai from August 24 to 28, jointly organized by Lakme and IMG Reliance Pvt. Ltd.

Bearing the need for plus sizes in mind, Lakme Fashion Week has collaborated with all. The Plus Size store, and collectively they will break thought patterns this season, by presenting a unique collection that will be showcased at the upcoming Winter/Festive edition.

Shilpa Chavan the designer said, Fashion cannot be a one size fits all entity. It’s a global movement and hence free for adaptation and experimentation, be it any size or shape.

This initiative by aLL could not come at a better time as Social Media is also pushing for individualistic acceptance and confidence in being body positive amongst other issues.

This support system is a need of the times to stand for who you are and not confine to generalized notions of what is fashionable / stylish depending on your size, as the general population is plus sized as opposed to a model size.

Beauty truly lies within and there is no better way to affirm this than with a plus size show with aLL at Lakme Fashion Week.

I am excited and above all, proud to be involved in this movement of sorts, said Chavan.

The model audition will be held on 29th July at St.Regis, Mumbai, at the 8th floor in Alhambra.

Registrations begin from 12 noon onwards additionally; participants will be mentored and will receive a makeover from Lakme at the auditions.
