The way we dress post-Covid is changing.
In-your-face clothes are out, easygoing and low-key is in.
Fabrics are more skin-friendly and designers are totally in sync with subdued colours.
FDCI x Lakme Fashion Week's GenNext Collection was a fine example of how one can introduce fun pieces into one's wardrobe.
