文稿
LuxuryIndian bridal wear has never been more in demand.
我们对奢华印度婚纱的需要从未如此旺盛过。
Thousands of British Asians filled a swanky Mayfair hotel to meet the men and women behind the designs, and to discuss the possibility of wearing something similar to the stars.
数千名亚裔英国人集合在伦敦梅菲尔区的一家奢华酒店里，与不和里的方案师们一起谈论穿与明星同款服装的可以性。
Sabyasachi Mukherjee, fashion designerThe last four months or five months has been real chaotic because, you know, we did Deepika Padukone’s wedding, and after that came Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas’s wedding. Bollywood and fashion has worked together many, many times to create fashion awareness. A lot of people at the grassroot(s) level of benefit from it. Artisans, a lot of weavers, a lot of embroiderers, beaders, get a lot of job(s) done and I think that's exciting.
Sabyasachi Mukherjee 服装方案师“曩昔的四、五个月非常忙，因为咱们做了迪皮卡·帕度柯妮的婚礼，然后又做了朴雅卡·乔普拉和尼克·乔纳斯的婚礼。宝莱坞和时髦界曾多次携手打造时髦知道。许多草根阶层的人都从中获益。工匠，许多编织工、绣花工，串珠工，都做了许多作业，我认为这很令人振奋。”
Aashni Shah Doshi, event organiser, Aashni + Co Wedding ShowI know people keep talking about Brexit. I haven't seen any down fall in people's spending for couture at all. A lot of the Indian designers have closed the gap for someone who wants to buy a duplicate or a replica as opposed to theirs because they have gone down on their pricing.
Aashni Shah Doshi Aashni + Co Wedding Show公司 活动组织人“我晓得我们都在谈论英国脱欧。但我并没有看到我们在高档定制服装上的开支有任何削减。许多印度方案师现已降低了他们成衣的价格，关于想买与明星同款仿制服装而不买高档定制服装的我们来说，价格差减小了。”
But it's not just affordability that's changed. It's also an increase in access; whether that be in person or on the internet.
不过改动的不只是是担负才能。我们触摸高档定制服装的机缘也多了，不管是亲自去店里仍是经过网络。
Anita Dongre, fashion designerThe moment a celebrity wears you, within minutes, everyone gets to know – and I mean within minutes, we get requests on our Instagram, requests on the email. I think it's amazing that social media today connects you to the consumer directly with no time lost at all.
Anita Dongre 服装方案师“只需有一位名人穿戴你方案的服装，在几分钟内，一切人就都晓得了，我是说在几分钟内，咱们则会在 Instagram、在电子邮件上收到收购恳求。我觉得非常好的是，如今的交际媒体能让咱们和花费者直接联络，一点时刻都没有浪费。”
