I am happy to get Gauahar Khan again to walk for me as she has walked during my first show at Lakme Fashion week. Her grace and elegance is sure to complement the vibe of the design”.

This creation is an ode to the handloom tradition and skilled weavers of India. It is a true tribute to the textile heritage of this country.
