Genderless and inclusivity showcase at Fashion Week

Since its inception two seasons ago, ‘NEXA presents The Spotlight’ has given talented designers the opportunity to showcase their work at FDCI X Lakmé Fashion Week. In its third edition this season, the program, after a competitive selection process has announced label Two Point Two by designer Anvita Sharma, as the winner.

Participating designers presented their collections along with the idea and concept of their fashion film through a virtual presentation to an esteemed jury of industry experts. The winning designer has been given a gratification to showcase her collection at the on-ground edition of FDCI X Lakmé Fashion Week being held between 23-27th March 2022.

The jury that was part of the selection process comprised of Shashank Srivastava – Senior Executive Director, Marketing and Sales, Maruti Suzuki India Limited; Ram Suresh Akella – Executive Director, Marketing and Sales, Maruti Suzuki India Limited; Rahul Khanna of RGRK – Designer; Kamna Malik – Editor, Elle India; Sunil Sethi – Chairman FDCI and Jaspreet Chandok – Head, RISE Fashion & Lifestyle.

Anvita’s collection titled Behind Closed Doors is inspired by the chaos that is born when the true self emerges. Her winning presentation was about the state of reflection that the pandemic brought out when humans were confined at home, the selfless nature of humans that came to light at the end of the pandemic. How, in the midst of turmoil, humans realized the value of camaraderie and had a leaning towards altruism. Her collection is an ode to that very faith and a reminder that hope, compassion, solidarity and above all love exists.
