Mumbai, July 10 : Bollywood actress Kareena
Kapoor is likely to walk the Lakme Fashion Week ( LFW) winter-festive
2012 runway at the grand finale to be jointly presented by designer
Kallol Dutta and duo Pankaj-Nidhi. The forthcoming edition will be held here Aug 3-7. "Kareena
walked for Manish Malhotra two seasons ago and we have shared the work
with her. We are already working with her (for this season). Kareena is
taking out time for that," Purnima Lamba, head (Innovations), Lakme,
told IANS. However, Lamba says nothing is finalised for Kareena's grand finale catwalk. "At
this point we haven't decided the prospect of it, but she (Kareena) is
very excited to walk for us. So Kareena might be the showstopper," said
Lamba. In the last season, veteran designer Rohit Bal presented
an outstanding finale. But this time fairly new designers like Kallol
Dutta and Pankaj-Nidhi are getting the chance. Lamba said: "I
don't see there is any risk. As somebody who has invested in the future
of fashion, it is my responsibility to give them a voice...The concept
of bringing fresh perspective to the finale was very exciting. So we
were very thrilled to get them on board and they both have very
individual takes on fashion." © IANS |
