When the countdown begins for style, glamour and couture, one needs to hold his/her nerve to relish the fun fiesta. With temperatures dipping at night, Hyderabad was witness to a three-day fashion event, making sure it wasn’t far behind other cities in terms of its celebration to welcome Christmas and New Year.

The three-day Kingfisher fashion fiesta, the Hyderabad International Fashion Week, at Taj Vivanta, saw models troop in from cities like Delhi and Mumbai to be a part of the event.

I happened to be backstage watching the glamorous women and men, observing how they were being groomed and became heartthrobs. I was a bit confused as to whom to shoot and whom not to and how to shoot. Am I equipped with ideas to capture all these moments?

Young chirpy models were busy with their makeup before walking the ramp in haute couture collections from designers.

With much wonder I kept clicking them. Some smiled back, others didn’t. A bubbly girl, who was busy with her hair, introduced herself as Natasha from Delhi. In a quick conversation she revealed her wish to become a journalist.
