Keeping the focus on cocktail, evening and bridalwear, Bhairavi Jaikishan presented ornate saris and lehengas along with a unique lehenga-sari, which is her trademark, at Lakme today.
The line, called 'A Wonderful World', featured traditionally classic silhouettes in shades of black, nude, emerald, midnight blue, aubergine, shocking pink, red and burgundy.
Using only net as her fabric choice, the designer offered up tonal resham floral embellishments, contrast petticoats and cholis, scalloped sequin borders and badla work.
We start off with Sucheta Sharma in the sheer black lehenga-sari, richly embellished with gold applique floral work.

Next we see Hemangi Pate in a stunning blue and red sari, while the blouse is replete with gold embroidery.
Deepti Gujral is a vision in sky-blue, delicate silver lines defining the finely bordered ensemble.
There's a shift in palette with this fishtail lehenga, the splendid resham work standing out in style.
The palest yellow comes into focus with this beautiful number, a dash of pink at the neck adding panache.
We see cocktail couture that doesn't miss a beat in light green, deep purple and elegant ivory.
The netted black choli is in stark contrast to the rest of this etheal sari, a trend we definitely see catching on.
Citrus tones are big this season and the designer provides her own take on them with a vibrant orange and gold drape.
Candice Pinto looks like a million dollars in this ornate bridal lehenga replete with embellishments.
Jaikishan makes her way down the runway with the lovely Alesia Raut in becoming yellow.
