MUST SEE - Mandira Bedi Shocking Pics at Kolkata Fashion Week (7 PICS)
Popular TV personality and cricket commentator Mandira Bedi kept the Kolkata Fashion Week-II audience spellbound as she sashayed down the ramp for the Satya Paul collection that was showcased Saturday.
An excited Mandira later told reporters: "Kolkata is my birth place. This is the first time I have walked the ramp in Kolkata. In real life the endorsements and the shows I do, I mostly wear Satya Paul saris.
"I have walked for Satya Paul in Delhi and Dubai," she said, draped in a red woven zari sari, with mock weaving with embroideries on it.
Satya Paul, the designer brand celebrating its 25th year, showcased collections based on hand weaving.
"In the first 10-15 years of our business, weaving and craftsmen have played an important role. If we don`t support their livelihood they can never go ahead in their lives," said Puneet Nanda, Satya Paul`s son.
Describing the collection that was exhibited as `non-Satya Paul type`, he said: "I am pleased to showcase such a collection in Kolkata as this place has a lot of respect and regard for weaving."
He has named the collection `Resham (silk) and Zari` to highlight the weaving that goes into fabrics like woven silk as well as jacards, georgette and satin. The collection had both saris and lehengas.
