The Lakme Fashion Week, which will be held from March 27 – 31, 2007, is taking initiative to provide a platform for budding designers across India and find them an opening for the international market.
The categories like the 'GenNext' and 'emerging designer' will help promising young designers to gain acceptance in the international fashion arena.

The organizers have received applications, about 28 percent for the emerging designer's category and 13 percent for the GenNext category are from Kolkata.
This initiative by the Lakme Fashion Week will surely boost the moral of the budding designers and provide an exposure in the international market.
