Ahluwalia Takes Us From Bollywood To Nollywood With Fall 2022 Runway

Ahluwalia Fall 2022

February 24, 2022. Leave a Comment

London-based Ahluwalia designer Priya Ahluwalia returned to the runway during London Fashion Week following several seasons of filmed presentations. A winner of the LVMH prize in 2020, Ahluwalia presented a collection inspired by the films of her childhood. Titled from “From Bollywood to Nollywood,” the collection speaks to her combined Indian and Nigerian origins. Designs in the collection reference the rich visual cultures of Indian musicals movies, known for dramatic choreography and costumes, as well as Nigerian films whose soap opera-esque story lines are underscored by chic and bold style choices.

Following up on a 2021 collection of womenswear, Ahluwalia presented a full assortment of womenswear and menswear ranging from suiting and outerwear to separates and dresses.

Weighing in our her background In an exchange British GQ, Ahluwalia said, “I’m part of a generation where there is more brown and black representation in fashion than ever before, which is amazing. We’ve got Botter, Nicholas Daley, Bianca Saunders and each of these voices is showing something entirely different.

“The beauty of that is that you can see that blackness and brownness are multidimensional, whereas previously European designers would lead you to believe that they’re one dimensional. Each season I might change what I’m inspired by, but with each collection I want people to be reminded that they should feel proud of where they’re from. Representation is key for the self-esteem of black and brown people.”

For fall winter 2025 KNWLS opted to forego a runwa For fall winter 2025 KNWLS opted to forego a runway show and present their collection in a styled lookbook.

Taking inspiration from a feminine Y2K aesthetic, the collection embodies designers Charlotte Knowles and Alexandre Arsenault’s ability to balance sexy and cool. 

In an interview with Vogue, the pair shared that they are currently working on a new design director role in Europe and have several other projects in the pipeline, including another denim project, a collaboration with a jewelry brand, and a menswear capsule for an e-commerce site.

Commenting on the lookbook styling, they shared, "Obviously in the lookbooks it's styled in a quite extreme way, but if you break it down into individual pieces, we've been thinking about merchandising and the customer more than ever before," said Arsenault. "We've seen the team in the studio wearing the pieces differently too, and we've taken that into account. It's a nice challenge to say: 'Okay, we want to make a sweatshirt, but it still has this silhouette or wash or rib detail that makes it feel really Knwls."
