After 4 days of utter chaos and pure fashion, day 5 was upon us and we didn’t know whether to be happy or sad. I’m sure you must have heard about the stunning finale which had designers like Manish Arora, Namrata Joshipura, Rajesh Pratap Singh, Sabyasachi, Tarun Tahiliani and Gauri & Nainika among others showcasing traditional Benarasi weaves.
With a bevy of designers lined up before the finale, day 5 took off on an amazing note. Rahul Mishra‘s Paris installation at the French embassy made way for a great start to the day. Soon after that it was colourful prints, tailored suits and twirls on the runway. Once the subtle nods and bright lights come on, you know it’s going to be one hell of a day.
