India Men's Weekend 2026 concludes with JJ Valaya's grand showcase in Jaipur

Jaipur (Rajasthan) [India], February 9 (ANI): The second day of FDCI India Men’s Weekend 2026 drew the curtain on its thoughtfully curated celebration of menswear on Sunday, culminating with a grand finale by veteran fashion designer JJ Valaya.

Taking forward the event’s spirit of craftsmanship and creativity, the closing day also witnessed a continued effort to showcase heritage, modern innovation, and contemporary design narratives.

Kicking off the show, INCA traced ‘The Journey of a Dot,’ aiming to interpret Bandhani through evolving forms and geometric expression, followed by Ajay Kumar’s silhouettes inspired by the ocean as a space for movement and memory. The collection featured engineered printed shirts, light bombers, suits, and unlined blazers paired with prints of maps, waves, and maritime geometry.

While TIL, through the ‘Layers of Chaos,’ offered a moment of stillness through layered handwoven textiles, designer Felix Bendish attempted to showcase identity and perception as inspired by Rorschach inkblots.

Antar-Agni continued its exploration of post-new age naturalism through fluid, architectural forms, whereas a stark narrative unfolded through ‘The Last Supper’ by Sahil Aneja. Countrymade presented Foundry, a collection forged through ideas of endurance, industrial rigor, and Indian craft.

Designers Krishna Mehta and Dhruv Vaish delivered their presentations, balancing their sharp tailoring with sophistication.

Pawan Sachdeva’s ‘The After Dark’ showcased blazers, sleek suits, shirts, waistcoats, and refined trousers crafted in wool blends, velvet, satin accents, and textured weaves.
