The Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla sensational fashion bonanza ‘Jawani Jaaneman’ was the opening highlight of Lakmé Fashion Week Winter/Festive 2015 presented by Ayush. Bringing to centre stage the heady nostalgia of the 70’s and 80’s, with 120 garments, the designers recreated the glam disco era, of spirit, soul and hippy couture with a fast paced retro Bollywood fashion extravaganza.

The world of India’s top couturiers Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla revolves around their scintillating collections, which are coveted by the crème de la crème of India and the international elite. 12 shiny mirror disco balls shone from the ceiling; while abstract glass and silver panels along the walls and on stage, created the rocking retro mood.

Multi coloured rotating spotlights kept the tempo of the show in top gear with swinging retro numbers like Raat Baki Baat Baki', 'Ramba ho', 'I Will Survive', 'Funky Town', ‘What a Feeling' and many more. Repackaging the styles into a future forecast, the show was easy, breezy, filled with fun, frolic and freedom. Aimed at the fashionable global diva who loves to dress glamorously, the duo unleashed nine looks that set the hearts of the women in the audience racing with desire.

Super model and ace dancer, Jessie Randhawa swung on to the ramp to the beat of the foot tapping yesteryear chart buster, ‘Aaj Ki Raat’ wearing a glittering, petalled, layered, ruffled, organza gown and soon it was a quick fashionable flashback of Bollywood glamour and music. The ramp Queen of the 80’s, the gorgeous Anna Bredmeyer swirled on the ramp in majestic floor length ponchos.
