Vizyon's 'Enlightened Shadows' to shine at Lakme ramp

Shradha Murarka and Ninon Palisse have created an haute couture and contemporary collection that combines modernity and femininity. Ninon Palisse, a talented young designer who has earned her laurels working with the greatest names in French fashion, says, “My inspiration for this collection came from the greatest melancholic poets and authors of the romantic era where the key principle was essentially to turn the darkness and the macabre into an enchanting hymn to life and beauty.” Vizyon’s collection invokes references from Edgar Allan Poe tales, Tim Burton journeys and Charles Baudelaire poems.

The line boasts of avant-garde silhouettes that play ingeniously with sober tones, such as earthy browns, porcelain, midnight blues, precious blacks, turquoises and absinth greens, complementing the theme of the collection. The real highlights are the subtle references ranging from the geometry inspired by modern abstract paintings and avant-garde architecture masterpieces to the rhythms of the human anatomy. This line also includes allusions to insects through cobbled web structures, beetle shell embroideries and butterfly wing colors. The collection retains its glamour quotient as the dark references are combined with a blend of hide and seek cuts and soft feminine materials.

The collection is a profusion of cocktail wear, structured short dresses, jersey trunks, smart jackets, skirts and sophisticated red carpet gowns. Luscious fabrics such as porcelain and brown matt caddy and black lamé have been used with touches of draped georgette and shiny metal like taffeta in shades of turquoise and green. To complete the look, Vizyon has created a line of its leather shoes in dark blue and black. This season, the Vizyon woman is poisonous, mysterious and seductive.

As Shradha Murarka, Creative director of Vizyon, explains, “The outfits combine intricate details and innovative shapes with bold constructions and multi colored textured panels, never drifting away from our brand’s signature style. This year’s collection promises to create a statement, perfect for midnight beauties with new urban sensibilities.”

Shradha Murarka, Creative Director of Vizyon envisioned the ethos of the brand to create a distinctive style code with must-have cuts and timeless pieces.
