Kangana Ranaut took center-stage as the 'fairytale muse' of designer duo Shyamal & Bhumika's new 'Wonderland' line on the final day of Lakmé Fashion Week Summer/Resort 2018.

'Kangana Ranaut is a superstar who exudes confidence while being fearless and bold. It felt natural to associate with her as she aptly embodies the qualities of a Shyamal Bhumika woman with great finesse and fearlessness,' Shyamal told IANS.

Bhumika added, 'She stands up for her rights and truly does represent the modern Indian woman. We could not have thought of anyone more ideal for us to present this new collection at Lakmé Fashion Week.'

The designers describe the occasion-wear line as a 'collection of enthralling elements in gorgeous hues and intricate embroidery'.

Showers of beads, crystals and pearls were lovingly crafted on the creations and flowed down from the bodice to gradually end at the hemline or covered the complete garment.
