| Sophie Choudhary & Neeta Lulla |
JJ Valaya presents ‘Maharaja of Madrid’ that projects a medley of Spanish and Indian influences. The collection delves into seemingly contradictory juxtapositions to come out with a unique collection of ready-to-wear statements of the season. His muse, Kajal Agarwal showcased an ensemble from the collection.
Neeta Lulladrew inspiration from the fashionistas of the 20’s and 30’s to create a thought that truly reflects the wispiness associated with mood as much as garb. The sheer, peek-a-boo quality of Sophie Choudhary’s outfit retains the boldness accredited to that era; the silhouettes accentuated a certain sensuous femininity that was not only glamorous but rather poised too.

Pankaj & Nidhi scripted their collection as ‘roses are blue’. The notions have been given an unexpected twist with their interpretation of this eternally flower in a surreal palette of blues. Roses appear in pixilated avatars, in full bloom, oversized and in a graphic glory that is a signature Pankaj & Nidhi style. Neha Dhupia represented the designer’s collection

| L-R: Carol Gracia, Tarun Tahiliani & Mehr Rampal |
Suneet Varma derived inspiration from poetry written by his mother. Supermodel Sanea Sheikh featured as the designers muse wearing an outfit which has been based upon words that repertoire, soothe and enrich the soul.
For Tarun Tahiliani, glimmers of sunrise saffron met exuberant outbursts of fiery hues and midnight shades. Mehr Rampal was the enigma that is the sadhu’s style - a sea of unending fabric, mysteriously wrapping itself upon itself, to create an aura, a cocoon, a sensuous drape. It was simply an effortlessness that lets the fabric be, a Kumbh mystery, unlocked.
