John Abraham Wants Blood Photo
If it wasn’t the sinister look that Bollywood actor John Abraham wore, then it was the theme of the collection he walked the ramp for that left the audience spooked. On Sunday night, Mumbai designer and John’s good friend Rocky S showed a line inspired by the dead and blood-thirsty, one that he claims was inspired by a “vintage vampire wedding”.
Rocky is on a roll. After surprising us with his bohemian rhapsody at Menswear Fashion Week in Delhi, he reconnected with design in this Glam meets Goth collection at LFW. For once, the front row audience comprising hard-to-please fashion editors didn’t really care about who was walking the ramp or making the front row sparkle with glamour. The gothic punk theme was enough to hold your attention.
It was a dark collection, literally and otherwise, playing with black, steel grey, rich violets and shades of wine, in a design story defined by classic suits. The straitjacket suit style crafted in silk blends, tweed, felt and garbardine was embellished with a hint of brocade and lace to create a highlight on the sleeves, back, and pockets.
Girlfriend Bipasha Basu cheered from row one while John walked the ramp. But she was miles away from colleague Katrina Kaif, who she is known to fight a cold war with.
