Tahiliani’s OTT season 2: A right royal remix, where reinvention reigns supreme
MUMBAI: Tarun Tahiliani’s OTT has returned to Lakmé Fashion Week with season 2, and frankly, it’s a bit of a belter. This ain’t your average frock parade, mind you; it’s a masterclass in multi-wear magic, where fluidity and versatility are the name of the game. Tahiliani’s philosophy? Reinvention, darling, reinvention.
The show kicked off with a flourish of draped silhouettes and layered separates, setting the tone for a collection that’s both elegant and, dare we say, rather clever. Models, those stylish shape-shifters, demonstrated the collection’s adaptability by restyling pieces live on the runway, proving that one garment can indeed be many. A clever mix of new bits and archive classics reinforced OTT’s commitment to a sustainable, timeless wardrobe, which is rather sensible, isn’t it?
Indian and western influences collided in a distinctly India modern mash-up. Draped gilets, fluid dresses, structured jackets, and layered separates offered a sensual, bohemian vibe that catered to all ages. Light, effortless, and versatile, season 2 championed a modern approach to dressing, where thoughtful design means endless possibilities.
At the collection’s core lies a deep respect for heritage craftsmanship. Hand-embroidered chikankari got a contemporary makeover, while rabari craft was revived with vintage replicas and fresh, archive-inspired designs. The Singh Twins’ geometric prints, a blast from Tahiliani’s 2015 past, made a triumphant return in a delicate summer palette of ecru, blush, sage, and taupe, rendered on luxurious linens, chanderi, georgette, organza and jersey.
“This collection speaks to the multifaceted urban woman,” said Tarun Tahiliani, “Her wardrobe is evolving as she moves through life, accumulating pieces that reflect her journey and achievements. The act of buying fashion transforms into a deeply personal statement of self-expression.”
As that old romantic, John Keats, once said, “A thing of beauty is a joy forever.”
And Tahiliani’s OTT season 2? Well, it’s certainly a joy to behold, proving that fashion can be both a playground and a treasure trove.
