Alaya Funiturewalla looks fantastic on the Lakme Fashion Week runway
Day 1 of FDCI X Lakme Fashion Week 2023 saw a melange of Indian couture from renowned designers across the country. In addition, celebrities have strutted down the ramp and raised the fashion quotient while they did so. On the official premier day of the Indian fashion showcase, it was Alaya Furniturewalla who descended on the catwalk. The young Bollywood actress turned showstopper for Geisha Designs, led by Paras and Shalini for their collection titled Profusion. As the showstopper, Alaya looked stunning in the outfit, known by the designer label as the Nocturnal Enigma: The Tassel Tempest Ensemble. Her pants and bralette top featured abstract stone-textured embroidery that merged elegance with an avant-garde flair. The intricate tassel embroidery added a 20s flapper vibe with rhythmic movement that moved with her every step.

On her turn as a celebrity showstopper for Geisha Designs, Alaya said, “Walking for Geisha Designs’ as showstopper for Profusion was a sublime experience. Though we are mostly city-bred women, the beauty in nature, arises a joy that resides within us all, it is this emotion that has been tapped by Paras & Shalini who are masters of their craft. It felt like I was literally walking through a tapestry of nature-inspired colours and crystal textures.”
