TIL Desk Bollywood/ Actress Diana Penty will add more Bollywood glamour to the Lakme Fashion Week (LFW) Spring-Summer 2018 edition as she will be the showstopper for designer Punit Balana.
The Jaipur-based designer will showcase his line ‘Bagru’ at LFW on its closing day on February 4. Known for focusing on local techniques and art, Balana’s new line is in tune with the art of creating vivid and intricate prints through the use of natural dyes and traditional techniques.
“I have always been very minimalistic and I prefer being comfortable in what I am wearing. Punit’s clothes are perfect for a casual day out. I am looking forward to walking for him at the Lakme Fashion week,” Diana, who has featured in films like “Cocktail” and “Happy Bhag Jayegi”, said in a statement.
For Balana, “Diana was a perfect choice” as showstopper. “Her personal style emulates the essence of Bagru, which showcases very contemporary yet comfortable silhouettes,” Balana said. ‘Bagru’ comprises modern silhouettes engulfed in traditional ‘Bagru’ printed fabrics.
