Presenting Purvi Doshi's collection on the fourth day of Lakme.

The blooms of summer came alive at the LFW today with designer Purvi Doshi's latest line.

Aari and Khaat embroidery showed off rich florals like roses, lotuses and tulips, while flirty frills and twists added to the summer feel of the garments. Fabrics used included cottons, muls and printed kota.

Seen here is a lovely red and white floral jacket with blue shorts.
