Dehli: The much-hyped Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week (WIFW) got a shocker when Delhi police did not give No Objection Certificate (NOC) to the show. According to the police officials, the show organizers have failed to get clearance from fire department; as a result, the event has been delayed and will not start at its stipulated time. One of the biggest fashion events, the Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week will be held from March 24-28. The gala event, hosted by the Fashion Design Council of India (FDCI), has a new venue - the National Small Industries Corporation (NSIC) Exhibition Complex. Special arrangements will be made by the FDCI to ensure that the new venue is `tailor-made` for the event. Exquisite lounges, plush salons, special on-site restaurants and exhibition cafe counters will be set up for the guests. “WIFW has always been a much awaited fashion trade show of the country. We hope this edition will usher in multiple trade opportunities through larger participation by designers, buyers, sponsors and fashion fraternity," FDCI President Sunil Sethi said in a statement.
