It’s intended to be a trade affair, so what better way to advertise your label than to wear it yourself? Talk checks out five designers who sported looks from their own spring-summer lines

Namrata Joshipura: Her Little Black Dress matched the mood of her edgy show “Blade Runner” that saw models hurtling down in daring black numbers. Joshipura teamed it up with shoes from Aldo and a Cartier watch.

Ranna Gill: Colour blocking is one of the major trends in Ranna Gill’s latest collection, “I am every woman”. The designer wore a chic colour block dress in aqua and indigo complete with a sequinned neckline, with a pair of grey Christian Louboutin heels and a Louis Vuitton bag to complete the look.

Malini Ramani: The forever-glamorous designer wore a black dress with fringe embellishments from her latest collection, with a Chanel watch and her favourite LV bag.

Nida Mahmood: Mahmood went the kitsch way with a white kurta from her collection, that she teamed with white dropped crotch pants and a Bollywood pop-art short jacket from her latest collection. A pair of green slip-ons, which she picked up from a market in Colaba, completed the boho look.
