Bringing the fearless culture from tribes of the world alive, actresses Tabu, Yami Gautam, Athiya Shetty and Prachi Desai along with four designers presented a slice of tribal fashion from the world on the ramp of the Lotus Make-up India Fashion Week (LMIFW) on Friday. Designers like Architha Narayanam, Poshpride, Sanjukta and WNW sought inspiration from various tribes and paid ode to them with their colours, fabrics and weaves. Titled Tribes of the World, the creations were loosely inspired by the tribes from Persia, Assam and Kashmir. Sushmita Sen Walks the Ramp and Owns It Like a Goddamn Diva at the Lotus Make-Up India Fashion Week.
