Actress Sharmiela Mandre walked the ramp for Michelle Salins

Designer Michelle Salins showcased her spring summer'14 collection at the Blenders Pride Bangalore Fashion Week. After having dressed celebrities at the MET Gala, Hollywood award nights and other celebratory events, Michelle came back to Bangalore as the guest designer for Blenders Pride Bangalore Fashion Week.

Inspired by the clear blue Californian skies and sandy white beaches with a modern take on the classic hand crafted porcelain motifs, Michelle's designs are an ode to the sleek and chic style of California. The collection comprises of day and evening dresses with fitted and flare silhouettes, printed sheaths and column dresses constructed from silk, georgette and matte jersey. Pleated chiffon and soft cotton add flare to the collection while silk organza lends an ethereal and feminine look.

There is a heavy influence of florals in colors like yellow, orange and bright bougainvillea and a use of the camellia white poppy flower print infused with hues of blue to give a sophisticated resort like feel.

About her stint at the Blenders Pride Bangalore Fashion Week, Michelle says, “It’s absolutely a pleasure to support and associate with the BPBFW team on their 10th anniversary edition. Bangalore has given me fabulous friends and clients; I feel it’s my time to return the generosity to the city with our style and glamour quotient.''

Sharmiela Mandre, who is very popular with the Kannada, Tamil and Telugu film industry walked the ramp in the finale outfit. Sharmiela said, “It was really exciting to walk for Michelle. I've seen the collection and it’s very me, fun, bubbly and bright. Any girl would love to wear such fun clothes and I am happy to be a part of this.”
