Is it the rising mercury that has kind of sent the Capital’s social scene in a temporary hibernation? Well, nobody seems to have a clear answer. Besides the commercial dos like film promo gigs and product launches nothing much is happening here.

On Wednesday night, a dose of fashion by designer Raakesh Agarwal who showcased his summer look of bold colours and cool prints at the Olive at Qutub on their ‘Flea By Nite’ agenda nudged some die-hard schmoozers to come out and indulge in small-talk, pose and prance around.

The clothes by Agarwal were pretty and his new accessories line prettier. Spotted were Neesha Singh, Nandini Bhalla, Tanisha Mohan, Sabina Singh, Ramola Bachchan, Anupama Dayal and the usual regulars.
