“Each garment in the collection includes innovations in textiles, including brocade imparting a sense of knitwear, kaleidoscopic weaves, and an incredible range of gleaming metallics – elements of surprise woven with the DNA that roots us,” added the master creator.

Some of the highlights of this collection included the flexible hand-woven textiles, sheer saris with bombers, voluminous skirts, and a varied colour scheme. Naturally, the clothes were the real stars of the show.
