INIFd x LST present Payal Tiwari AW18 at London Fashion Week

The Indian based Inter National institute of Fashion Design (INIFD) x The London School of Trends (LST) showcased the capsule collections of 18 student designers and graduates from across India
Payal Tiwari's collection shows her expertise in knitwear.

Also using crochet and macrame with the normal knitting techniques to create a patchwork of textures.

Not just for daywear, Tiwari designs a stunning evening dress with the macrame knotting technique, sparkling lurex knitting and sheer turquoise chiffon adorned with triangle metallic embellishments.

Whilst a body skimming black evening dress has an almost mermaid appearance as dangling black metallic squares adorn the skirt like fish scales and a heavy rope yarn fringing dances around the hemline like the tail fin.

Jewellery accessories are crafted by hand by Anisha Parmar London finding inspiration in the melting pot of mutli cultural London.
