If she wowed moviebuffs with her performance in Gangs of Wasseypur (GOW), actor Huma Qureshi impressed fashionistas when she walked the ramp on Tuesday in a black dress as showstopper for Atithi Gupta at the fifth and final day of Lakme Fashion Week Winter/Festive 2012.
When asked why she chose Huma as her showstopper, Gupta explained, "In her forthcoming movie Gangs of Wasseypur 2, Huma plays the love interest of a gangster. There is lot of drama to her character in the film, and she tries to imitate Madhuri Dixit. I thought this would add drama to my garments and that she would do justice."
The music of Gangs of Wasseypur 2 played in the background when Huma sashayed down the ramp and it was a perfect promotion for part two of the film, releasing Wednesday. Director Anurag Kashyap, who showed up a little late, was there to cheer for his actor. For Huma, Gupta created a dress with uneven drape hemline and teamed it up with golden zardosi sleeveless shrug. "I work on detailing. My garments look simple but there is lot of texturing and gathering. I wanted to keep it minimalistic, stylish and different," said the designer. Click for LFW pictures below
