An ode to villains and vamps, and the 100 years of Indian cinema was given at the Grey Goose IIFA Rocks event on Day 2 of the International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) Awards. It was done by displaying a strong association between Bollywood and fashion with a fashion show presented by designer duo Shantanu and Nikhil.
Dark and heavy colours like red and navy blue ruled the occasion with anarkali suits and dresses high on the waves and drapes, while the designers added bling to their collection by pairing golden borders and bases with the dresses.
While the woman represented Bollywood vamps with their dark and mysterious looks, the men also flaunted heavier and darker emotions by donning fitted trousers and coats.
The Bachchans, who have had a long association with the IIFA Awards since it's inception, were not in full attendance this year. Amitabh, Jaya and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan gave it a miss. However, Abhishek Bachchan was there representing the family.
Actor Arjun Kapoor made his IIFA debut with quite a bang. The Ishaqzaade actor entered while suspended in air from a harness and danced on a medley of songs at the IIFA Rocks event on Friday (July 5, 2013) in Macau.
Abhishek performed on the big night, his entry for the main stage started with some dance moves to his popular rap number Ek Main Aur Ek Tu on the green carpet. Bollywood's lovely ladies took the responsibility of raising the fashion quotient high up.
Though Kareena, Katrina, Priyanka, Bipasha were missing, Madhuri Dixit, Sridevi, Anushka Sharma, Amrita Rao, Dia Mirza and Vidya Balan made up for their absence, each of them were seen in their favourite designer outfits.
