Move over supermodels, make way for the college kids

To fit in with the theme of his line 'Tangiers' for the final day of the LFW, Narendra Kumar ditched models in favour of college girls on the ramp. Created in collaboration with retail giant Westside, the designs are all about young, urban pret -- they are inspired by the Moroccan city of Tangiers and its effortless blend of modern architecture and ethnic heritage. The young girls seemed to have a great time on the ramp and all-in-all it was a vivacious, colourful, fun showing. Check it out.

First up is a cute checkered shirt and bubble skirt in matching maroon, with a sparkling beret thrown in for good measure.

Legwarmer look


Next is a cute get-up with fitted pants and tee jazzed up by legwarmers and -- brace yourself -- gold boots!

Bubble trouble


The designer reverts to the bubble silhouette with this black staple, accentuated by cuts at the shoulder and side pockets.

Simple and trendy


A silky black blouse goes well with this flouncy checkered skirt; the white scarf at the neck adds an edgy touch.

Passionate about purple


Lacy leggings jazz up most of the short outfits, this time teaming up with a purple tunic and cute beret.

Sun and sky


Mellow yellow and deep blue go well together on this casual shorts and top ensemble.

Prom dress


This slinky sheen-tinged mini is sure to sit well with young girls -- it's sexy, it's trendy and their dads will allow them out of the house wearing it!

Groove thing


Nari's models had a lot of fun on the ramp -- this college chica grooves in checkered see-through leggings, a layered skirt and funky orange jacket.

Cool grey


A graphic sleeveless blouse sits well atop these hep grey tapered pants.

Stripe it up


Another modest but sweet number makes its way out, highlighted with stripes.

Just the right style


The designer has ensured all the outfits are appealing but appropriate, given his target customers -- here's another teen party-goer ensemble.

With his gals in tow


Nari steps out with all his young college models in tow, grooving down the runway as an indulgent audience applauds them heartily.
