YFLO Kolkata wrapped up its Connect chapter — the theme for its 10th chairperson, Shilpi Choudhary — with the Women Fashion Power: Fashion Show and Excellence Awards at Taj Bengal, where women from different walks of life took to the runway.

Designers Jayanti Reddy, Rimple and Harpreet Narula and Divya Sheth showcased their collections with 55 YFLO women and four girls from The Hope Foundation walking the ramp. Eighteen YFLO members were also recognised for their achievements in varied fields. 

(L-R) Shuttler Aparna Popat, politician Priya Dutt and singer Kavita Seth received YFLO awards for their contribution. Tabu, Divya Khosla and Nikhita Gandhi were among the 15 ladies feted on the occasion.

I shall keep the memories close to my heart,” signed off Shilpi.
Raabta singer Nikhita Gandhi opened the show with a powerpacked performance.
