On Sunday evening, guests mingled over champagne and hors d'oeuvre at the jewellery store, and later made way for a cosy runway in the middle of the hallway. Models walked down the intimate ' ramp' in stylish festive wear in shades of ivory, gold and red.
The men started off the evening in lavish brocade achkan s and churidaars. Elaborate turbans from Rajasthan gave an added sense of stateliness. Meanwhile, high- collared floor- length jackets with delicate embroidery, sexy choli s with beaded latkan s, voluminous lehenga s and anarkali s formed the main collection for women's wear.
Ivory hued threadwork and gold embroidery made sure that the ensembles looked ceremonial without being OTT. The second attraction of the evening was the gorgeous jewellery pieces by Nirav Modi that added a sophisticated flair to the ensembles. With the use of minimal metal in crafting the gems, the diamond necklaces stood out on the models and added dignified glamour to the looks.
The six- layered sapphire and diamond necklace and floral patterned danglers stood out particularly amid the range of other stunners.
Known as India's first supermodel Ujjwala Raut, who has walked the ramp for fashion houses such as Yves Saint- Laurent, Roberto Cavalli, Hugo Boss, Dolce & Gabbana, Emilio Pucci and Victoria's Secret, was the showstopper of the evening.
Decked in an intricate lehenga and choli that boasted a plunging neckline, the diva teamed the style with a delicate diamond necklace and earrings.
