The 20th edition of Lakmé Fashion Week has painted the ‘city of dreams’ in all sorts of colours of glitz and glamour. The streets buzzing with uber-chic fashion enthusiasts from around the country, front rows adorned with A-list celebrities, and ramps spilt with the colours of the creations by the top designers in the country, this top fashion event of the nation has already created a lot of buzz around the art of clothing.
The mellifluent presentation of the pieces of art was kicked off by Manish Malhotra’s designs. The models flowed in the daintily decorated set-up, adorned with the designer’s luxury festive edit ‘Maahrumysha’ that resonated with the background tunes of ‘Chhap Tilak’ and ‘Mera Piya Ghar Aaya.’ The gorgeous Katrina Kaif, acting as the showstopper of the shimmery and jazzy collection, sizzled on the ramp in deep night-blue velvet lehenga with gold embroidery, revealing V-neck choli, and theatrical ruffled sleeves that flowed at the back.
