One of the most anticipated shows is by the GenNext , which gives a platform for young student designers to make a mark and leap into the professional world of fashion. And so on Aug 3, amidst a packed house of fashionistas, buyers and journalists, I sat witness to the batch's ramp show (who were also given tips, such as facing the camera, acknowledging guests in F-Row and what to wear to represent their collection, etc, by me as their media mentor a few days ago). I was so proud to see these focussed youngsters turning into hotsteppers as they confidently took to the ramp with their models sporting their collections. Amongst the 10 designers (7 labels) namely Aniket Satam (Mayan collection), Asa Kazingmei (Manipur lad with Immortal fashion), Astha Sethi And Sidharth Arora (A Stylish Androgynous Look), Kavit...
