Womenswear design duo Gauri & Nainika presented a romantic, whimsical collection with just a hint of rock-and-roll, via a fashion film broadcast on day two of Lotus Makeup India Fashion Week. 

On October 15, Gauri & Nainika showcased their first-ever digital fashion presentation at the first digital edition of the Fashion Design Council of India’s LMIFW. The collection was a celebration of femininity, florals, and vintage charm, with a few minimal style outfits thrown in.
 
The brand’s fashion film showed models wandering around a garden in voluminous floral gowns. The aesthetic was given an edge through styling and accessories and models wore retro style victory rolls in their hair, chunky black boots and dark lipstick courtesy of fashion week sponsor Lotus Herbals makeup. 

Other notable looks included sheer chiffon gowns with tiny polka dots and sculpted bodices and 1950s style dresses in white with red flowers. Several simply cut, neutral toned dresses also made an appearance paired with slouchy boots for a Grecian aesthetic. 
 
Gauri & Nainika launched a dedicated e-commerce store back in July in response to store closures due to coronavirus and an increase in the popularity of online shopping. The brand specialises in evening wear and launched in New Delhi in 2002.
