Inspired by 'The Mythical Garden' and drawing on both '50s and '60s silhouettes, as well as a vibrant palette influenced by the Firebird, designer Sanchita Ajjampur offered up two very different lines for both sexes at the LFW yesterday.

While the ladies' line consisted of swimwear and dramatic silhouettes, the men's revived the Wild West era using native American graphic touches and layering of fabrics.

Seen here is Surelee Joseph opening the show in a multi-hued threaded one-piece.
