Almost
Arjun's collection "Almost" explored the connection between a person's emotions and surroundings, where a person goes to unconventional paths and embraces their multifaceted identity. This collection showed emotions on the runway and their meaning message behind the attire. The dark set, black clothing line, mysterious music and slow walk at the runway made this collection standout.

Multiplicity of Identities
The collection explores multiple identities of a person. According to the Rishta by Arjun Saluja, the person is a rebel, a poet, a philosopher, an artist and everything in between. It delves into the feelings and emotions of each identity layer by layer. The concept is unique but the collection is what many can include into their fashion.

Music
The music played during the runway show added more value to the concept of the collection. It had echoing drum sound and mysterious slow music showing that complemented the dark concept. The music had no lyrics, it was instrumental sound that echoed through the arena.

Runway Walk and Expression
The walk by the models at the runway gave justice to the overall collection. The walk was very slow and subtle, each step with different emotions. The expression was sad, painful, mysterious and seducing that deeply delved into different layers of inner self. The audience was deeply attracted by the music, walk and expression that was saying something.
