Max Fashion has set up a first of its kind platform in India through Elite Model Look for young aspiring models to come together to showcase their talent, get mentored from the best in the industry and emerge as the next supermodel.

The Finale evening was attended by Delhi’s socialites, Fashion Designers, Stylists, Bloggers and the likes. The venue was buzzing with energy and excitement. There were a total of three rounds. The first round presented ‘The Monochrome Story’ which made the audience delve into the world of black and white with flowy crop tops, color blocked tees and skinny jeans. Round two, ‘Mood Indigo’ was a world where sporty combines with street style and what comes out of this unique combination is a range filled with denim playsuits, sexy co-ordinates, flirty tees, cool blazers and some amazing sporty pullovers. For the third and last round, Max presented a special edition collection by Rara Avis – The Glam Luxe. A dazzling and glamorous range and sure to add ‘oo’ to the oomph, this collection had it all, right from sexy embellished bodycon dresses to perfectly tailored suits.
