Filthy Haanz SS15: Bollywood Meets Gossip Girl

On Wednesday January 14th, I had the privilege to watch my first fashion show of the year for Filthy Haanz Gold SS15 Collection titled “Bombay Graffiti”. The bold collection featured 26 Bollywood inspired looks designed by their Creative Director and my Friend Wilber Tellez. 

Being from an Asian family, I loved how the brand incorporated the aspects of Indian Fashion such as golden embroidery in a youthful and sexy way. The brand which is aimed towards the Gossip Girl lifestyle, where their client is the young, sophisticated and daring soul – managed to take traditional garment styles and transform it into just that. My favourite looks from the show had to be the finale look featured above, which is a Swarovski Crystal embellished top, with a ombre silk maxi dress – as well as the men’s white and gold embroidered suit. Other key features of the collection included the custom printed “Bombay Graffiti” designed by Mr. Tellez himself.

Overall the brand nailed the Bollywood X Gossip Girl theme of the show with their looks. The location of the show was at The Rum Exchange in Downtown Toronto. The music was perfectly suited to set the tone for the vibrant and exciting show, and I was lucky to have some of my close fashion friends there as well.
