If you follow me on Twitter or Instagram, you would have seen some new and unusual activity from me at a fashion show.
Yes, I was at Garuda Mall a couple of weeks ago for their 12th birthday celebrations, which they did in a grand way with a fashion show choreographed by Prasad Bidappa, and featuring the hottest new looks from Raymond, Forever New, Forever 21, Vero Moda, Aldo Accessories, and Steve Madden.
Read on to know all about the event, and to participate to win a Rs. 1000/- off shopping voucher from Garuda Mall.
The event was held outdoors. It was a pleasant and balmy evening, with a relaxed and chill crowd gathered to cheer on Garuda Mall.
12 years! It seems like just yesterday that Garuda Mall was the hot new kid on the block. Since it began, it's continued to grow and thrive in the heart of Bangalore despite numerous other competing malls springing around Bangalore. And it still remains the first choice of malls because of its sweet combination of excellent high-street shops, restaurants, and movie cinemas.
Here are some photos of the fashion show we attended. The models all showcased the newest styles in the shops, so you can visit Garuda Mall now to buy these creations.
The men's show - Raymonds
I really loved the men's suiting show, and so did K who was with me.
After the show, we took a stroll around the Raymond's shop to get a closer look at the suits. They were really impressive, especially the tux.
The women's show
Multiple brands from the mall took part in dressing the women for the show. Most of the dresses were evening wear, party, cocktail kind of dresses.
The models were really graceful, and did an excellent job showcasing the brands.
The whole show with innumerable dress changes and set pieces was choreographed and arranged by Prasad Bidappa. He did a good job ensuring the show ran smoothly.
Overall, it was a lovely evening under the stars enjoying some glamorous costumes showcased by some really good models. I came to the event expecting delays and dramas. Isn't that a defining characteristic of a fashion show? But this was very smoothly done, with a professional touch.
A great time!
If you are looking for some great shopping at some great prices, do visit Garuda Mall sometime, there is definitely something for everybody.
