Deccan Herald - Dressing up a match: "A fashion show during an IPL screening had some unique rounds


When there is an IPL match, there has to be glamour around. Be it the presence of film stars cheering their favourite teams in the audience or the cheerleaders. Keeping the IPL spirit alive in the City, Pavithra Halkatti recently added glamour quotient for a match screening with a fashion show, thus making it an interesting combination.

With some of the latest trends and collection from the recent fashion week, the show had three short sequences. The first sequence was highly inspired by the IPL itself.

This is all very well in its way, but other Liverpolitans have flocked to a form of entertainment which originated to do something dear to the heart of most of us; take the mickey.

Burlesque began as a working-class entertainment form, parodying pompous opera and stuffy ballet; the culture of the well-heeled and well-fed.
