Concerns of growing deforestation is the next edition-designer Nikhil, Shantanu

Fashion designers Shantanu and Nikhil decided to launch their second edition of Van Huesen India Men’s Fashion Week. The theme of this edition is to create awareness against the growing deforestation with their collection title as “Death of a Tree”.

The collection was dominated by one strong grey with hints of reds, goldens, violets, blues, greens and pinks thrown in. As this was also the duos winter and fall collection for 2010-11 the men on ramp wore leggings, pants, long jackets, coats, scarves in fabrics like wool, cable knits, silk, handloom tussars, crape but with a futuristic touch.

"This collection is more to show our concern about deforestation which is very close to our heart. We tried to show our interpretation of slow death of a tree from its prime to perish. It is our determination to voice our concern through our creativity," Shantanu said.
