It's that time of the year again when the city of dreams gets fashion-ready.
The Lakme Fashion Week Winter/Festive 2016 is all set to roll and we can't wait for it to begin.
The hotness, the madness, the collection -- five days of absolute #swagasm.
Here's what we are expecting this year:
1. GenNext fashion

7. Kareena's baby bump

Remember how Carol Gracias made headlines for sporting her baby bump on the ramp last time.
