The show captured the spirit of India with students coming from diverse backgrounds, focused on spring-summer trends while embracing an exciting season.

Overseen by a fashion expert with experience of more than 20 years, Gintare Jankuniene, the students created a collection of 55 women’s wear all of which reflected their personal narratives. 

The spectacular collection was designed on the basic principles of Deconstruction. Incorporating an experimental approach to their work designers produced a conceptual but ultimately wearable outfit by deconstructing: unpicking three simple garments (trousers, jacket, and men’s shirt) and taking them back to flat pieces then adapting, developing, and reconstructing them into different designs.
