This year, INIFD Deccan’s Annual Fashion Show theme was – “TREZIRE – The Awakening”. Women empowerment is the much-talked-about issue today. Women are increasingly getting empowered to decide the course of their lives and professions and realize their fullest potential. With the steady increase in the number of working women, they have gained financial independence, which has given them the confidence to lead their own lives and build their own identity. Women empowerment implies the ability in women to take decisions with regard to their life and work and giving equal rights to them in all spheres of life like personal, social and so on. But while doing so, women also take care to strike a balance between their commitment to their profession as well as their home and family. They are playing multiple roles of a mother, daughter, sister, wife and a working professional with remarkable harmony and ease.
This Fashion show is a tribute to all those women who are every day playing their role with perfection in all sectors of life. The different themes under the main theme are as follows:-
THE FRAGRANT
THE POWER UP
THE SEDUCTRESS
THE WARRIOR
THE TERRA
THE FUTURISTIC BRIDE
THE HERITAGE
