I am devastated. It was just so lacking in its appeal, that barring a few pieces, I pretty much wrote off the entire show!
All trademark Sabyasachi traits were missing and that might have been a good thing if he was trying to move away from the 'cliché' and 'stereotype' but instead, he failed to deliver and so was left floundering neither here nor there! I know am being harsh, but from a designer with his calibre, expectations always ride high and to be left so low and dry is just plain disappointing!
Not all was bad. Some pieces were good, like the long printed coat in vibrant red with wide collar or the olive a-line coat! Some of those flowy long printed skirts worked too!
But all in all, I kept waiting for the collection to get better. And was left wondering, is this it? This can't be it! Is it?

Dear Well Heeled,
Understandable that someone with a blog user name titled " Well heeled " will find Sabyasachi's amazing collection "devasatating".
I was there ... and i personally believe along with the the rest of the New York fashion industry that this was one of his very best.
Ofcourse if you dont understand what intelligent design and clothes are all about you can always see some of the other "Bling designers" like Manish Malhotra or Baby Phat...
After all for a lot of the Fashion Diva's like you back in India, fashion begins and end's with sequin, crystal and cleavage...
I bet you are in your high crystal studded heels, that you picked up on your trip to New York, which you thought resembled the same shoe on your fav Firang Actor you saw on E news, as you read this comment...
His collection is not for you lady...It's for people who have a lot more character and personal style.
So the next time you consider yourself Fashion's gift to mankind ...stay away from Sabyasachi's show and review the blingers in India on your really funny Blog.
love,

Dear Chamiya,
I couldn't of course resist writing to you. I read some of your previous stuff like that on the Diva show or Karisma Kapoor's bag and here's what I have to say to you,"get a life"!!
I bet you are some frustrated IT type person sitting along the shores of america and venting your pent up whatever at the rest of the world.
wait, with a name like 'chamiya' what more can one expect? so you think you know all that there is about fashion and whats cool and not huh? what a joke!!
You must be, because aren't you the one who said Ritesh Deshmukh is sexy?? What a joke!!
Please make this world a better place and stop blogging!Noone cares for your lame 'phashun gyaan'.
Love,
Who calls themselves Chamiya?
hey.. well heeled.. how did u land up at my blog?
wow, I'd never understand high fashion: that last piece, the one that the black girl's wearin looks positively revolting to me.
and then I get here to say tht and see an anonymous attack that informs me that
It's for people who have a lot more character and personal style.
split ends constitute personal style?
hokay.
Dear "Who calls themselves chamiya"..
