Gurugram : As a modern iteration of what is new and fiercely sui generis, the 14^th edition of the renowned Blenders Pride Fashion Tour will celebrate the self and the individual through its extraordinary new concept-‘Pride’. Commencing with Gurugram, designer Tarun Tahiliani curated a spectacular affair with his breath taking collection, keeping the audience spell bound. Adding to the charm of the evening was showstopper, Disha Patani, looking stunning in Tarun’s masterpiece.

Far removed from the traditional confines of mere success, the tour defines ‘Pride’ as an inner sense of achievement, of uniqueness and of individuality, all the things that are, in fact, meaningful for this generation. These are not mere words; Blenders Pride Fashion Tour 2018 will delve into the idea of ‘Pride’ through one’s choices, style and legacy, decoding this journey through the vision of some of India’s most blazingly talented, world-famous fashion designers.

Blenders Pride Fashion Tour 2018 believes in celebrating ‘Pride’ which is a hallmark of today’s generation, as a meaningful expression of their success. While their distinct choices define their individuality, the taste of pride which comes from this self-earned achievement is one for these individuals.

Kartik Mohindra, Chief Marketing Officer, Pernod Ricard India, added, “Instilled with a strong sense of positive pride, individuals today are driven by confidence and belief for attaining success. Pride therefore takes a centre stage in defining their individuality, creating their own choices, and self-earned achievement. Blenders Pride Fashion Tour 2018, in its 14th edition brings alive this exclusivity, by rejoicing in individuals who have created their own unique tales of pride and success.”

 

Weaving a seamless story around ‘My Blend, My Pride’, Tarun Tahiliani created the ultimate “India Modern experience” through a theatrical representation of fashion with a blend of east and west. While showcasing 50 unique looks with historical opulence mixed with contemporary whim, an energetic fusion of style mesmerized the audience like never before.

Donning this complex and layered showcase of Indian craft with an edge, stars like Mehr Rampal, Kubbra Sait, Soniya Jahan, Harti reddy, Bindu Vadhera, Archana Vijaya, Tina Tahiliani, Sumant Jaykrishnan and Jaideep Singh were also seen walking the ramp.

Speaking about his curation ‘My Blend, My Pride’, designer Tarun Tahiliani said, “This show for me is a real blend of my journey and the myriad and varied influences that have made this up. From India, the world, cyber space, our heritage and dreams of the future. This is a dream of the future, where inclusivity and tolerance blend to create an inclusive world that allows individuality while celebrating the past and the new world. All that we were and more! Blenders Pride Fashion Tour 2018 for me is the perfect foil, a platform to show this new exciting expression of India modern.”
