Suneet Varma – A bit of spice
‘Style Guru’ Suneet Verma has been a name to reckon with in India’s fashion circles over the past 15 years. Suneet’s lunge into the world of fashion began after he graduated from the London School of Fashion in 1986, followed by enriching stints with couturiers Nikole Farhi in London and Yves Saint Laurent, Paris.

Ever since, Suneet has been involved with many activities enveloping almost every perceivable aspect of the concept of fashion ranging from the revival of weaving and embroidery to researching and developing couture embroidered garments for international design houses like Donna Karan, Carolina Herrera, Mary McFadden and Nicole Miller.

Suneet has done solo shows in London, Paris, New York, Hong Kong, Davos, Dubai, Bangkok and Jakarta. His first ever prêt collection ‘Le SPICE’ was launched at the LIFW 03, Mumbai. The essence of Le SPICE is in the spirit of the Suneet Varma woman, who is sassy, sexy and spicy! The clothes are an amalgamation of Suneet’s look developed over the last fifteen years with his couture and collection clientele and the need for a more affordable, youthful yet stylish line.

The collection offers stylized tunics in a variety of shapes with cowl necks, handkerchief and bell sleeves, interesting neckline details and short sleeve options. The A-line skirts are floor length with textural embroidery in whimsical motifs layered for a young, colourful look. The short skirts are spicier, cut on the bias with interesting details of coloured bands, beaded tassels on hems and matching embroidered belts. Both lengths can be worn with great looking separates like sporty tanks and short fitted shirts.

The colours are bright in hues of lime, yellow, red, cobalt blue, orange and fuchsia pink. Besides black, beige and white remain the all-time favourites. The fabrics are light-weight chiffons, drape friendly georgettes and stretch cotton for the right fit.
The collection can be worn as striking separates or as twin sets, depending on the occasion and the desired effect.
