FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER organized by Ramesh Dembla!

Linking Road,Bandra,Mumbai
When
Akshay Kumar is said to be coming for an event, one can surely expect
two things. One is that pandemonium will be created and the other is
that the event will start right on time as scheduled! These two were
most definitely the outcomes at the announcement of India's first men's
fashion week, INDIA LUXURY STYLE WEEK 2015- Men's Edition organized by
Ramesh Dembla!
Akshay, who the is the most
natural choice for a men's fashion week, what with his effortlessly
stylish sense of dressing and that chiseled to perfection physique said
some interesting words at the launch but more on that below.
The
event commenced with participating menswear designers (from all over
India) displaying a sneak preview of their collection and then Madhurima
Tuli took the stage to be the perfect emcee and say some charming words
about ILSW and her favorite co-star. She said that, "Akshay, with
his Greek god body and athletic appeal, can carry off virtually any
ensemble under the sun, be it a sharp 3 piece suit or a sweatshirt and
hoodie! Therefore, its only natural for Mr. Kumar to be the face of a
fashion week that focuses exclusively on men's luxury fashion wear. The
India Luxury Style Week will take place in Bangalore from 12th-16th
August and with Akshay as the brand ambassador, one can only image how
sizzling the week will be! A big round of applause for the man behind
the genius idea of ILSW, Mr. Ramesh Dembla!"
Akshay
then walked the ramp for ace designer Ramesh Dembla who is also his
very close friend for the past 26 years. The man looked his sharpest
best in a powder blue suit with a stick engraved with a skull! His walk
was met with thunderous applause and we did hear a few ladies swoon at
his salt and pepper beard, amazing swag and infectious smile! Akshay
then went on to call the man of the hour, Mr. Ramesh Dembla onstage and
addressed media questions wherein he stated that, "There are 52 weeks in
a year and now finally there will be one full week dedicated to men's
fashion from Aug12-16 in Bangalore called ILSW! After all, women should
not have all the fun of fashion weeks right?" He spoke about his strong
friendship with Ramesh Dembla and said that, "Ramesh's father had
financed my first film Saugandh and we go back 26 years and I have great
respect for his work. He asked me to do this and so here I am." Their
banter was visible when Ramesh said that, "Earlier for my fashion shows,
which I have been doing since 9-10 years, I would use men as props till
the women were ready, but its now time for men's fashion to take centre
stage and this will happen with ILSW." At this point, Akshay cheekily
chimed in saying, "I would not mind being your prop Ramesh!" Akshay also
addressed a media question on wife Twinkle in an interesting fashion.
When asked as to what Twinkle thinks of his style of dressing he said
that she does not think anything, in fact what is her opinion becomes
his opinion by default so he dare not argue!
Krishka
and Sunil Lulla were all smiles and proud of Ramesh Dembla (Krishka's
brother). Also present were Anu Malik with daughter Anmol Malik, badman
Gulshan Grover, Neil Nitin Mukesh, participating designers Manoviraj
Khosla and Rocky S who were heard receiving praises for their
collections, Smita Thackeray, Urvashi Rautela, Zarine Khan, and more!
