The first presentation of the 16th Blenders Pride Glassware Fashion Tour, sponsored by the Fashion Design Council of India, took place at The Royal Calcutta Golf Club in Kolkata. The legendary designers Shantnu and Nikhil and Harmanpreet Kaur, the captain of the Indian Women’s National Cricket team, brought to life the idea of “Pride in Bringing Twists in Traditions” by releasing a stunning collection from their wildly successful bridge-to-luxury brand “S&N by Shantnu Nikhil” that captured the essence of our most beloved sport, cricket, called “Shantnu Nikhil Cricket Club.” Nobody other than the dashing Rajkummar Rao and the always-elegant Patralekhaa closed the show as showstoppers, each making a statement in a relaxed genteel manner!

The “Shantnu Nikhil Cricket Club (SNCC)” is based on the cricket-loving nation of India and the lifestyle promises of today’s top cricketers. The S&N design philosophy has always placed a high value on sports, and to develop a special cricket collection that added new twists to classic cricket-inspired clothing, the creative team teamed up with Harmanpreet Kaur, a contemporary cricket icon.

The fashion show celebrated the young people of India’s vivid and developing displays of “Pride & Authenticity.” For today’s younger, more fashionable age, SNCC was developed. The fact that Harmanpreet Kaur is a member of the new breed of cricketers who can score hundreds and appear in commercials with equal panache added to the evening’s youthful vibe. The modern collection on display was committed to maintaining the nostalgic and stylish characteristics of cricket on a backdrop of season-friendly textiles like flat knit and fine silks. One of the primary highlights was the clean, athletic-chic-inspired accents that combine design and functionality. The SNCC showcased fundamental clothing items like the classy retro-doused varsity jackets, dapper crested sweatshirts, sweater vests, and traditional yet elevated cropped polo shirts to classic accessories.

Harmanpreet Kaur, a renowned cricketer, said, “Fashion has always been a reflection of my personality for me. And I’m honored to work with the incredibly creative Shantnu and Nikhil on their cricket-inspired collection, which has modern takes on classic sportswear. Additionally, this is my first foray into the fashion industry, and I’m excited to do it with the Blenders Pride Glassware Fashion Tour, a renowned name in fashion & lifestyle”.

In addition to the spectacular fashion show, this year’s Fashion Tour also debuted a brand-new feature at the event called the “Style Gallery,” which Ashish Soni and FDCI curated under the title “This is not a T-shirt.” The exhibit featured T-shirt outfits created by over 60 designers and homegrown fashion labels that embellished or even deconstructed the basic T-shirt into a design celebrating their authentic interpretation of Pride. The Fashion Tour’s efforts to become more environmentally friendly and sustainable are put into action by the Style Gallery show, which was built with sustainability in mind by utilizing recycled materials. The “Step into the Metaverse” booth, which was part of the Style Gallery, allowed visitors to engage with fascinating elements of “Blenders Pride Glassware Fashion Tour Park,” the Fashion Tour’s avatar in the metaverse.
